About Flavor Pinching-out Sauce Bottle
Flavor Pinching-out is a sauce bottle designed to let the contents be identified by smell. The bottle body is made of glossy ceramic, and the cap is made of silicone with small air holes. The shape of the body leads people to pinch the soft cap when the bottle is picked up. Squeezing the cap releases the scent of the sauce through the air holes, so the contents can be recognized without smelling the bottle mouth. The bottle measures 9 by 9 by 12 centimeters. Simple existing production methods are used.

- Research
- During discussions with teachers and classmates, I found that many products in the market today are redesigned by adding new symbol elements to the original product design. In such a design, the added symbols may be incompatible with the original product. So my classmates and I collected many designer works for research and discussion. After analysis, we think that design based on user behavior will be more touching. Then I studied many excellent design works on the market based on user behavior, and got some experience, so I tried to make the "Flavor pinching-out Sauce Bottle".
- Inspiration
- Flavor pinching-out Sauce Bottle is based on the function of the product, and is redesigned within the shape and structure of the sauce and vinegar bottle. On the basis of people's cognition of the use of ordinary sauce and vinegar bottles, they change the shape of their materials, break people's inherent recognition of sauce and vinegar bottles, and make people use the sauce and vinegar bottles more interesting
