Rocking Broom Sets

The Roly-Poly Cleaner by Salih Berk Ilhan Boasts a Free-Standing Design

— November 23, 2012 — Art & Design
Broom sticks and dustpans are very basic, unlike their more technologically advanced vacuuming cousins, but the Roly-Poly Cleaner hopes to change that. Instead of sighing in acceptance as a broom falls to the floor for the umpteenth time, a person can make a change. That change can happen with the Roly-Poly Cleaner.

Conceived by designer Salih Berk Ilhan, the Roly-Poly Cleaner incorporates a modern dustpan into its design. Instead of the classic straight lines that were used to help place the dirt in, this dustpan has been rounded so that when the broom is snapped in the entire product becomes freestanding. Not to worry, the lip is still stick straight.

The clever Roly-Poly Cleaner has been envisioned in three bright colors: purple, blue and orange.
Trend Themes
1. Modern Dustpan Design - Opportunity for innovative redesigns of traditional cleaning tools, such as incorporating rounded dustpan designs for improved functionality.
2. Freestanding Cleaning Tools - Potential for the development of cleaning tools that can stand on their own, offering convenience and easy storage.
3. Colorful Cleaning Products - Demand for cleaning products that incorporate vibrant colors to add personality and aesthetic appeal to household cleaning routines.
Industry Implications
1. Home Cleaning - Disruptive innovation opportunities in the home cleaning industry include the creation of modern, freestanding cleaning tools with improved functionality.
2. Household Goods Manufacturing - Innovative redesigns of traditional cleaning tools present opportunities for manufacturers to diversify their product offerings and attract new customers.
3. Interior Design - Designers can tap into the trend of colorful cleaning products to create cohesive and visually appealing home cleaning tool sets that complement interior design aesthetics.
