Momo

Product Design

UdK, 2020, with Paula Schwager

In the year 2020, as the world faced a global pandemic, the importance of thorough handwashing became more evident than ever before. But how can you ensure that you're washing your hands for the recommended duration?

Momo is a soap dish that not only holds your soap but also adds an element of fun and timing to your handwashing routine. As you take your soap from the tray, simultaneously, you push the marble along the groove. The marble starts its journey, rolling around the dish's surface for approximately 20 seconds. When it eventually comes to a halt, it's your cue to conclude your handwashing procedure.

Momo transforms hand hygiene into a playful and engaging experience, ensuring that you wash your hands for the appropriate amount of time. With Momo, you can be confident that you're maintaining the highest standard of hand cleanliness during these crucial times.
