Next Challenge: Future of Footwear - what’s next? |
Each year, over 100 million little plastic bottles are used for bathroom amenities in Marriott properties. Though "luxurious" and sanitary, this is a huge waste of resources. The company is determined to lead the charge in the hospitality industry to reduce this type of waste.
Propose a dispenser of bathroom products (shampoo, conditioner, lotion) that is aesthetically pleasing, serviceable by room attendants, and user-friendly. Make sure to include:
1) Description of how your dispenser works (motion, levers, triggers, etc)
2) Visuals that to supplement your description (rough sketch or mockup)
Criteria
Avoid proposing soap dispensers like you would find in a public restroom. We'd like to stay away from anything that feels industrial.
Note: If your dispenser is ideally located in the sink area or in the bath/shower, feel free to focus on a single use-case.
