Shake it off!

Sometimes a simple idea makes a product experience volumes better. I’ve said this loads of times in my articles, showcasing products that I feel really embody good design. The Self Tapping Sieve is another such example. Reducing a two-hand activity to a one hand activity, the self tapping sieve is basically a sieve with a loose, wobbly handle. Shake it from left to right, and the sieve’s inner spine collides with the sides of the handles, allowing the water to drain out faster, and eliminating the need for us to repeatedly tap or hit the sieve to help the water drain out. Simplicity and elegance!
