# Dial-Like Water Purifiers Watering by Hyelin Lee Keeps Track of How Much People Drink By Meghan Young | Published 2013-02-08 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/watering-by-hyelin-lee References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2013/02/08/the-blue-leaf-water/) Watering by Hyelin Lee is a unique [water purifier](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/water-purification-appliance) fit for modern homes. While it may look like a smoke detector mounted on the wall instead of the ceiling, it in reality dispenses [filtered water](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/r9-countertop) instead of issuing a loud alarm. Although this may seem like a strange aesthetic for such a product, it does more than simply provide clean, refreshing drinks. Shaped like a large dial, Watering by Hyelin Lee is equipped with a blue leaf that is there for more than just looks. Since it is recommended that people consume at least 8 to 10 glasses of water a day, this blue leaf tracks how many glasses consumed each day. Watering by Hyelin Lee also allows people to customize temperature and more. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 29% | Activity: 49% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Smart Water Purifiers:** The trend towards smart water purifiers that not only filter water but also track and customize personal hydration habits provides an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the household appliance industry. - **Health Monitoring Devices:** The incorporation of health monitoring devices, such as the blue leaf on Watering by Hyelin Lee, into household appliances presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the health and wellness industry. - **Eco-friendly Appliances:** The push for eco-friendliness in household appliances creates an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the water purifier industry, as consumers become more conscious about their environmental impact. ### Where This Applies - **Household Appliance Industry:** The integration of smart features and health-monitoring capabilities into water purifiers presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for the household appliance industry. - **Health and Wellness Industry:** The incorporation of health monitoring capabilities into household appliances such as Watering by Hyelin Lee presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the health and wellness industry. - **Environmental Industry:** The demand for eco-friendly water purifiers creates an opportunity for disruptive innovation in the environmental industry, promoting the development of sustainable household appliances. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sleek Water Dispenser Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/metapure-desktop-water-dispenser.md) - [Avant-Garde Water Purifiers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oasium.md) - [Vibrant Metal Water Purifiers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/conecto.md) - [Blocky Water Purifier Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quming-delight.md) - [Designer Water Purifier Faucets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumos-water-purifier.md) - [Flexibly Filtered Water Dispensers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/purifying-dispenser.md) - [Countertop Air-to-Water Dispensers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atmospheric-water-dispenser.md) - [Water-Purifying Water Jugs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luvia.md) - [Mid-Century Modern Water Dispensers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supor-instant-water-dispenser.md)
