MINI HAND VACUUM.
BRIEF:
Re-design a fresh and innovative appearance for a current vacuum model with a series of external add-ons.
STORY:
For years, the hand-held vacuum cleaner has not been a product applied with innovation or style. As a result, it has remained a bulky and unattractive device which is often stored away. The new and improved model boasts both it’s mature and elegant personality through a careful consideration of exterior material selection, colour and finishing techniques.

BACKGROUND:
Cleaning has always been a part of our everyday routines. However, it is not a phase which many of us choose to do and, in most cases, is a chore. In particular, cleaning and maintaining high standards of automobiles and vehicles is difficult to achieve without the correct tools, especially when on-the-go.
Issues Encountered:
Vacuums often need to be stored away/hidden
Aesthetic style does not match the car/user
Add-ons, cables etc. are messy and cause clutter
