The last industrial design project for second year was to cast 5 identical objects, the objects had to contain something and be based on a specific design era. So for my vessel I designed this Condome® condom dispenser. based around the 50's and 60's free love movement I wanted to make sex a less taboo topic by giving contraception a place within the home other than under the bed or crammed into a sock drawer. Influence came from 60's pop culture incorporating a colourful eye catching form while also poking fun at 50's advertisements and mass consumerism. the idea is to loosen the disposition surrounding sex while upholding safety and education.
