piao

perfume bottle

design sprint brief

design a perfume bottle + fabricate an appearance model using casting:

- CAD your bottle

- 3D print your model + use print to create a mold

- cast your perfume bottle with the material(s) of your choice **bottle must look like glass**

Piao is a perfume bottle designed to be as sustainable as possible, with only one recyclable plastic piece under the cork cap. 

​

the bottle can be refilled by ordering more of the perfume from the company, and eventually be given new life as a  flower vase.
