Droid

2022

Abstract

Droid redefines the consumer vacuum category by translating the performance of professional systems into a compact and intuitive kitchen appliance. Designed from the inside out, every internal component was re-engineered to miniaturise the technology and optimise the use of space. Its architecture is based on an interlocking assembly system, eliminating the need for screws and adhesives while delivering professional-grade vacuum performance in one of the smallest devices of its kind.
