Dish Rack Contestants

Designers, even we have the same title, everyone has different design approach on the one same project.
On our Dish Rack Design, each suppose to present two directions, then the team will choose down to 3 or 4 concepts to go further on the design board.
Here were our final four;










SINE, a middle end styling, not too fashion but enough to make different and adding some style to the kitchen.
Maybe a catch to look at the beginning, it may not match all the kitchen. It targets to a younger, small space habitants.
Can hold up 15-16 plates with utensil hollder and an opened lane for putting cups, glasses on. ( with small slope detail to keep your cups always slide in)
Come with tray as a set.
Color is fashionable, candy with a bit metallic touch.





MIST, a basic approach with all functional improvements. It may appear simple, it holds up a lot of plates and you can use all the space inside to the fullest. Even the wall of utensil holder, there are ribs to help you secure the plates. The interesting improvement on the inside of the utensil part is great little details; the inner ribs added to help organizing your tools, the bottom of utensil basket is concave shape so, all the water goes down surely to the underneath tray.
The color is very tone down, Eco friendly to your eyes and as same as to your kitchen. But is this shape different enough?





MAX, a fullest capacity to hold up all sizes of your plates, 4" to 11" fit all and yes, a lots of them. Not much explanation, just for people who go crazy for the value! Cheap in production, because two parts are actually come from the same tool, just flip it and assemble to ..X shape.
Save space for storage, shipping and ratialer will love it. Once folded, it became flat and ready to be shrink wrapped.
The utensil pocket is separate from the main rack and snap to the side of the rack itself. Come with tray which can be a cover when packed for shipping.
No color application yet!










BOOMERANG, a fancy sophisticated look for the dish, and for your kitchen. There are only two plastic slats, thin and place next to each other forming up the rack... You can go longer, just buy more slats. There are very stylish utensil pockets to both ends. ( not quite finish, need to add holes for water to drain out but this is only the idea sketch)
Assemble with the Aluminum rod, close all parts with knob on each side. Boom.....Boomerang Dish Rack.
