The Bubble Party takes inspiration from bubble machine party props and reimagines them as a playful hand-cleansing activity. Rather than just being an interesting way to change a room's atmosphere, this bubble-making machine concept imagines that the copper-lined machine could be used to emit hand sanitizer bubbles for people to catch between their palms. While there are any utilitarian hand sanitizer dispensers, this design by Steve Jarvis, founder of Steve Jarvis Design, introduces an element of whimsy to the hand-cleansing ritual.
The Bubble Party is one of the winning concepts from Bompas & Parr's Fountain Of Hygiene competition, which challenged designers to rethink hand-washing and sanitizing during the time of a global pandemic.
