Water wastage is one of the biggest problems of today’s modern world, and it is witnessed predominantly at the industry, household level. The project addresses the upper-class segment of a user where water wastage is prevalent in their daily household usage, and have targeted the areas where awareness about water wastage can also be provided, I have selected faucets because at household level user interacts with faucets mostly for his daily life water using activities, The faucets in basin area were focused because most number of the water usage activities. The project is to design a faucet that prevents water wastage in daily activities of brushing teeth, washing face, shaving etc., And also making the user interactions more intuitive and informative. I have tried to make the entire process experiential, with combinations of digital and manual interactions of faucets, Certain functions like manipulation of the flow, temperature control were taken into consideration for all concepts. The formal study for ideation has been done using semantics approach and features has been shortlisted by taking inferences from market research and semantic studies.
