DESIGN NAME: U Shape Soap
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Soap
INSPIRATION: Every year, the waste of living chemical products from a family has a great burden on the environment. Especially for using the remaining and abandoned soap. Design the U type soap can make full use of the residual soap, so that each piece of soap can be used up. To save resources and be friendly to the environment. Combined modeling indicates users to use this soap sustainably and increases the possibility of soap styles.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: In our daily life, the residual soap is too slippery to grasp, so it is usually discarded, causing waste. But it is not a problem for the U shape soap. User can place soap residual into the groove of U shape soap, which can stick together to form a block. The combined model design has a meaning of continuation of soap. The U shape soap helps save materials and reduce manufacturing cost, and is also friendly to environment.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: U type concave structure can hold the residual soap, they will stick together to form a whole in the process of using.
A combined modeling of three ones has the behavior suggestion of using the soap sustainably.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: With the development of social economy and the acceleration of urbanization, more and more waste living chemical products are produced. At present, only a small amount of them are recycled, but there is no real reuse. Most of the world's living chemical products are discarded, using methods of landfill has caused serious pollution on the environment, and it is dangerous to the human health. The design of U type soap makes each piece of soap can be used up, and this can reduce the amount of residual soap.
CHALLENGE: Creative: to put the remaining soap into the groove of the U type soap, you can add a little water, in order to increase the fusion speed of them. They will stick together to form a whole in using. Again and again, every piece of soap can be used up. A combined modeling of three ones has the behavior suggestion of using the soap sustainably.
Research challenge: we tried many times and failed many times, and finally found the suitable size and the optimal utilization status.
