A Water Bottle That Reminds You To Drink

by

Never get thirsty again! Alarm inside Vittel bottle cap reminds you to drink every hour.

French marketing agency Oglivy Paris has designed a new bottle cap. The cap has an in-built timer that reminds you when to rehydrate. When it is screwed onto a regular water bottle a timer is activated. After an hour a spring causes a flag to ‘ping’ up so you remember to drink.

Concrete is rarely the most fascinating of subjects, but a strange ‘thirsty’ version of the material has turned it into something rather compelling.
Topmix Permeable concrete is designed to be a super-absorbent surface covering that allows water to seep through it rather than sitting on top in an attempt to combat flooding.
