Science and Design

















I was reading an article in SEED magazine about working in cross-disciplinary teams (science and design). People understand that the world is so complex and that product development is so complex that a single person or a single profession isn't capable of coming up with all the answers. One of the innovations that they showcased was a solar bottle by Alberto Media and Francisco Gomez Paz. It is a four litre water bottle that enhances SODIS technology, capturing UV-A radiation and heat from our most available resource: sunlight. This solar disinfection can purify contaminated water within six hours.
