Overview
Problem and solution
The facts
- 60% of human body is water
- People should drink eight 8-ounce glasses of water each day (8×8 rule)
- Up to 75% of Americans suffer from chronic dehydration
The problem
People with busy schedules and preoccupied minds often forget to drink enough water throughout the day, even if they know how important water is for their health and for maintaining proper body function. Some people have tried to manually track their water intake or use alarms to remind themselves to drink water periodically, but these methods are inconvenient and intrusive to daily life. Our challenge is to create a design that promotes hydration for a healthier life and changes people’s relationship with drinking water.
