Viviana Degrandi designs the new Drop colander which is a salad spinner with a handle attached to it, creating the shape of a drop. The Drop is able to hold many items including [lettuce, herbs, tomatoes, berries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lettuce-grow), and other greens.

When the ingredients are placed in the colander, users can [rotate the handle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zjddg) on the inner section to close it and keep it from ingredients falling out. From the hollow handle, water is able to run through and wash the ingredients as it can [shake and spin them](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whirlpool-spinload-rack) for the water to drain out. Notably, it seems to come in two color options -- a more neutral grey or a brighter teal tonal iteration of the Drop.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Drop-shaped Kitchenware:** Innovative designs that incorporate the shape of a drop into kitchenware products.
- **Multi-functional Food Preparation Tools:** Incorporating both a colander and a salad spinner, the Drop offers two functions in one tool.
- **Eco-friendly Kitchen Solutions:** The Drop eliminates the need for disposable paper towels or other wasteful methods for washing and drying vegetables.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Kitchenware Manufacturing:** Innovative kitchenware design companies can explore incorporating drop-shaped designs into colanders, salad spinners, and other food preparation tools.
- **Home Goods Retail:** Retailers specializing in home goods can offer multi-functional kitchen tools that promise to help customers save time and space.
- **Sustainable Living Solutions:** Companies focused on eco-friendly living solutions can offer products like the Drop which reduce waste and reliance on disposable products.
