This water purification device remains a concept for now but has an unconventional inspiration that makes it stand out.

The appliance concept was created and designed by Garim Kim and PDF Haus and uses the Vespa -- an Italian scooter -- as its inspiration. The water purification device comes in a [sleek, curved shape](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handheld-vacuum-concept) that mimics the popular European scooters. It also has a unique tire track pattern that is stamped onto the front of the appliance and looks more like a logo than it does a tire track. The concept was designed in a variety of colors that were all inspired by landmarks, locations and nature that are seen in various areas of Italy.

This appliance concept offers a unique inspiration for the future of [water filters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/r9-countertop).
