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.
