IT ALL BEGAN WITH A REAL PROBLEM.
Have you ever experienced the continuous failing of the detergent dispenser from your dishwasher machine?
Sometimes the soap gets stuck inside the machine, it falls or does not dissolve properly.
To solve this problem I designed an accessory for any dishwasher as a functional alternative to allow the proper soap dissolution on any machine.

WHY TO RE-DESIGN THE WAY DETERGENT IS DISSOLVED INSIDE ANY DISHWASHER?
After an observation and trial and error analysis for the development of a functional and esthetic product to solve this problem, I took in consideration the main pain points on a regular standard dishwasher machine:
UNSAFE BOX
TOO COMPACT (STUCKS THE SOAP)
UNSTABLE OPENING / CLOSING SYSTEM
INSPIRATION
Waash was inspired on different common references from objets we are used to on our daily lives.
In shape and form the product resembles a bath bomb, and for the filtering it owns the simple functionality of a regular kitchen strainer.
