When buying a box of Kleenexes, the consumer must generally be satisfied to find a decorated carton that might nearly match her interior design. The 'Stand! Tissue Box' does what so many covers do, but replaces more than just the color of the existing product.
Instead of taking the basic shape of a rectangular prism with an oval hole, this object has a rigid dispensing slot and one inclined side. What this changes is the item's ability to be placed at an angle other than face-up, and with its heavy materiality it can remain anchored as such, despite the small base.
The benefit to this arrangement is that the 'Stand! Tissue Box' can keep your facial wipes from exploiting unnecessary tabletop real estate. And from higher shelves and surfaces, it's much easier to pull outwards than upwards to acquire a Kleenex.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Vertical Tissue Boxes
- Creating tissue boxes with inclined sides and vertical dispensing slots opens up potential for new designs and colors that match people's interiors.
- Efficient Space Utilization
- The Stand! Tissue Box is a great example of how to make products that save space and look good at the same time, there's the potential for this to be applied to multiple industries.
- Heavy Material Accessories
- The Stand! Tissue Box shows that changing the weight of objects such as accessories can often lead to more functional designs. This trend can inspire new designs for everyday items.
Sectors Adopting This
- Home Decor
- Companies creating items for the home decorations industry should consider developing more innovative functional products that improve space utilization like the Stand! Tissue Box.
- Office Supplies
- The Stand! Tissue Box could be an opportunity for office supply companies to create tissues boxes that take up less space on desk and tabletops.
- Fashion Accessories
- The principle behind the Stand! Tissue Box demonstrates how increasing the weight of products can potentially create more functional designs, this concept could be applied to everyday accessories as well.
