The humble vacuum cleaner is essential yet meant to be stowed out of sight, which is something the 'DORIC' vacuum cleaner concept is intended to help change. Designed by Seongmin Lim, the vacuum cleaner is characterized by its elegant upright profile that's actually meant to be left out on display rather than hidden away to keep it on hand for use, but also for aesthetic appeal. The vacuum is inspired by the Doric columns found in ancient Greek architecture to give it a timeless profile that's suited for spaces of all design aesthetics.
The 'DORIC' vacuum cleaner concept is imagined in four finish options and has a simple LED indicator for monitoring the charge level during use.
