Designed by Snowhome, The Accumulator is a money box and a visual spectacle all in one.
Measure exactly how much you've saved by watching your coins stacked up against a chart of what can be afforded by your invested amount. A brilliant way to encourage saving and a creative way to decorate a room, The Accumulator is a multifunctional bank and a sweet piece of decor.

With this new stance, there is a now a bubble of potential arising for businesses or products that deal with managing other's financials in creative and unique ways.
