The main focus of my bachelor thesis is the phenomenon of images in everyday-objects.
What happens if three-dimensional objects not only represent a function but also become the carrier of an image? Can a metaphorical transfer of images lead to objects with playful character and personality? The three designs show a way for „hidden objects“ (iron, hand mixer and lint roller) to be
taken out of their concealed presence in shelves and drawers.

The HAND MIXER is Part II of my thesis.
The main subject of the second object is attention. An Image is used to create a character that gets noticed when standing on a kitchen shelf. Other than the steam iron, this hand mixer produces its imagery through the composition of purely functional elements - the different whisks are arranged to look like a sculpture. A sculpture that seems to be inviting you:
“Hey, why don’t you bake again? :) “
