About Lest C8 Pulitore a vapore
Lest C8 è un pulitore a vapore progettato per la pulizia domestica. Il progetto unisce le caratteristiche degli aspirapolvere e dei pulitori a vapore, combinando mobilità e maneggevolezza ergonomica con le prestazioni del vapore in un corpo compatto. Le ruote integrate e la maniglia di sollevamento facilitano gli spostamenti e il trasporto. La regolazione del vapore a più livelli avviene tramite un'interfaccia touch capacitiva, adattando l'erogazione alle diverse superfici. Un ugello con giunto flessibile migliora il raggio d'azione e il comfort. Il serbatoio dell'acqua estraibile si riempie dal coperchio superiore. La pulizia avviene senza l'uso di prodotti chimici.

- Design Challenge
- This steam cleaner explores the convergence between vacuum cleaners and steam cleaners, redefining usability through a hybrid typology. The design research focused on mobility, ergonomics, and product perception, introducing integrated wheels and a lifting handle to enhance maneuverability and transport. Benchmark analysis highlighted gaps between bulky steam systems and agile vacuum cleaners, guiding a compact, balanced architecture. Prototyping and 3D validation refined proportions and user interaction, resulting in an intuitive, domestic-friendly steam cleaner that bridges two established product categories.
- Research
- The creative challenge was to achieve high ergonomic performance despite the product’s compact dimensions. Design research focused on simplifying the user interface to ensure immediate, intuitive interaction, reducing visual and functional complexity. At the same time, the project aimed to maintain a clean, essential design language while conveying a modern, refined, and well-equipped character. Careful proportioning, surface continuity, and functional integration allowed the steam cleaner to appear visually light yet technically complete, balancing clarity, usability, and contemporary aesthetic appeal within a reduced footprint.
- Inspiration
- The design inspiration comes from both vacuum cleaners and steam cleaners, combining the best qualities of each category. From vacuum cleaners, the project adopts mobility, compactness, and ergonomic handling; from steam cleaners, it integrates effective cleaning performance and functional robustness. The creative intent was to merge these strengths into a single, coherent product that is visually appealing, simple to understand, and highly functional.
- Project Duration
