About
The award-winning SodaStream DUO was designed and developed by Tamooz in collaboration with the SodaStream development team.
This is the first hybrid sparkling water machine in the world and can be used with both plastic and glass bottles.
The carbonation method of a glass bottle and a plastic bottle are completely differ-ent, making the combination challenging,
requiring mechanism development and compatibility between the different carbonation platforms.
Safety was emphasised as there is use of glass under high atmos-pheric pressure. In addition, the Duo is equipped with the revolutionary Quick-Connect CO2 cylinder system, which makes it easy to change the CO2 cartridge.
This sets a new standard in user experience of sparkling water makers.
Development
Design
During the early research process, we emphasised the dual use of the machine.
The chosen design style was geometric with clean lines. We divided the machine into
two main bodies and differentiated various areas with the use of updated patterns.
Regarding user experience, we ensured the machine can be placed under a kitchen
shelf, also while open (as opposed to previous models), which dictated a new and
interesting morphology ensuring a modern & compact design.
