Description

“Sensitive” does not respond to current social and material resource issues retrospectively, but disrupts established conventions and contributes to a future worth living. The design describes a new, sensitive form of action. Daily personal hygiene becomes a sensitive experience for body and mind. Green hydrogen is regarded as the energy carrier of the future. The production process produces only water, which, due to the high operating temperatures, is available as a waste product in the form of steam. Sensitive uses this as a medium for daily body care. The well-tempered steam rises slowly, wetting our bodies in the meantime. During this process, less than 200 milliliters of water per minute are used.
