Project description

Freezing while waiting for the train? This situation is now a thing of the past! Benedikt Kestler designed a hand-warming-machine that addresses this real problem of many (German) rail users. After turning a crank for 30 seconds, the machine switches on and rewards the user with warm hands. Regardless of whether you are waiting at Berlin “Hauptbahnhof” or some village train station - the hand-warming-machine turns this uncomfortable situation into a pleasant one.

This object is part of the series “Happiness to go” – a number of interactive exhibits that have been designed to make the time you spend waiting more enjoyable.

Happiness-to-go was part of the Product Design Graduates 2015 Exhibition at Salone del Mobile Milan 2015 - www.canyouspellbauhaus.de
