Hair lifting scalp aerating design
Thank you for taking on this design challenge!
We are looking to create a piece that can slide into the hair and separate it creating more airflow for scalp health and preventing hat head.
Imagine a product milimeters high that slides in like a head band, ideally it would lift hair and sort it to prevent bacterial growth, sweat and flat hair.
It should also be able to take on some of the weight of the hat or scarf worn so the hair wont be crushed. ( I had made a headband out of pipe cleaners and this did great to distribute the weight of my scarf and not crush my hair totally but it was not ideal and there was no breathability for the scalp as the hair just laid flat.
I imagine some sort of geometric design mixed with the right material that will stay on the head without the need for too many clips.
The material needs to allow for antimicrobial properties as well as breathability as it will hold the hair in place, and when hat or head covering is removed, the hair will be voluminous and not crushed or flattened.
I know nothing like this exists, but the purpose of the product design is to maintain hair health health/ cleanliness and volume under coverings.
Ideas that entertain for material, design, structure and air flow will be asked to prototype in a second design challenge.

Shower Brush Design
Looking for help refining the design of our soap dispensing silicone shower brush
1. The design should be ergonomic and handled
2. The design should allow for filling, refilling, storage, and dispensing of liquid soap without leaking while not in use
3. The design should dispense soap on demand

Smart display screens to be placed around the house
We need your help with developing a small screen (Oled) that will be used for displaying messages and information. The small screens will be used all over the house and need to be able (with different cradles or other solutions…) to be attached to cabinets (kitchen, laundry room, garage...etc) hang on walls, and stand on flat surface such as kitchen counter, table etc.
More details of what needed as follow:
Screens need to be either slided into different cradles for example:
* A cradle with mini suction cups so it can be attached to flat surface such as kitchen’s cabinets. (Fig. A)
* A stand cradle like different smartphone cases have so it can stand on flat surface such as kitchen counter, table etc. (See Fig. B)
* A cradle to be hang on walls like a small picture, or using a magnet like this https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/studioproper/wallee-m-modular-magnetic-phone-mounting-system
* A cradle with electric plug so it can be plugged into an outlet (On a kitchen counter etc.) and continue functioning while being charged https://www.prong.com (See also Fig. C)
Or a better and prefered solution will be a design of a screen with all of the above (or as many options as possible). Like this idea for example http://www.weaseleasel.com/, but with the above options. Or some kind of a combination with this concept https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/oona/the-oona-whatever-you-need-it-to-be?ref=card
*Screen need to be able to be attached/stand/hang both vertically and horizontally
BBQ Grill brush-sponge with scrapper (bristle free)
Looking for help in developing a unique design and features for our grill brush-sponge for cleaning all types of BBQ grills and grates.
Purpose and Usage
- The product should effectively clean grill grates, removing grease and residue.
- It should be suitable for use on various types of grills (charcoal, gas, electric, pellet and flat top-grills) under high temperature and cold.
Design and Ergonomics
- The handle should be comfortable, durable, long curve and non-slip, allowing for a firm grip even when wet. Made of steel and fire resistant plastic
- The handle should have a dedicate soft spot for applying pressure with an index finger.
- The handle should end with a builtin metal scrapper enabling easy cleaning of hard-to-reach areas and between the grates.
- The handle should have a hanging hole
- The brush head must be an interchangeable sponge pad component (heavy duty, fireproof sponge with a plastic base stick to it). The sponge pad should be interchangeable with other types of bristle free, scrubber cleaning pads (also for heavy duty cleaning)
- The mechanism to assemble the handle and sponge pads or other types of pads must be extremely strong, yet easy to assemble, easy as 1-2-3. This mechanism must concealed if possible and elegant. And the mechanism must be unique and different to existing products.
Material Specifications
- The sponge pad material should be durable and able to withstand high temperatures/non flammable.
- the sponge pad can be detachable and wash separately
- Materials should be rust-resistant and safe for food contact.
Safety Features
- Incorporating a heat-resistant handle to protect the user's hands from burns.
Aesthetics
- The product should have a modern, sleek look that appeals
Dimensions
- the sponge (and other type of pad) should be 5 inch wide.
- Ensure the brush head is appropriately sized for efficient cleaning.
Cost Considerations
- Aim for a cost-effective design that balances quality, aesthetics and affordability.
