Bye Bye Laundry - fresh clothes without washing

Or is the reality that support conventions? What makes us regularly to wash clothes, spending on Laundry detergents, petrochemical products and energy? Why wash clothes? Is it possible to do without washing, saving energy and limiting carbon emissions? Agree, Lisa Marie Bengtsson, a recent graduate, now a designer, thinking about serious and meaningful issues. The result of her thinking was the concept of "good-bye Laundry" (Bye Bye Laundry).

Lisa is not offering completely give up washing. It is unlikely that this proposal would be justified for underwear or other garments that come into direct contact with the body. However, in many cases, according to the designer, Laundry service unnecessary. You can do without it if you apply gentle and less costly in energy with respect to methods freshen clothes.





The concept of Lisa Bengtsson "bye Laundry" (Bye Bye Laundry) involves the use instead of detergents or washing machines, activated carbon and conventional coat-hangers. Instead of regularly to wash clothes in the washing machine, to spend on resources and personal time, Lisa recommends storing it between periods of intense use on special hangers, combined with containers filled with adsorbent activated charcoal.

According to the designer, the freshness of the clothes you can maintain if you get rid of the characteristic smell accumulated during wear. Each design hanger consists of a wire hook and a wooden base to which is attached the glass chamber. It is activated charcoal is specially treated with oxygen to enhance the porosity and ability to capture odors.

If a few days to keep the clothes on a hanger, the smell will disappear and the clothes will still be fresh. Of course, we are not talking about cases where clothing is contaminated with visible stains, there can be no odors.





Convenient hook can be hung in any acceptable to the owner of the clothes. Door, window handles and backs of chairs are no exception. Shoulders or rings – direct support for the clothing can be chosen one that is more suitable. Glass camera placed above clothes, are filled with activated carbon, which can be replaced if necessary.

Ecologists never tire to remind the people about the necessity of saving natural resources. What could be more effective in saving resources than the replacement of the wash, spending energy and other resources on intense aeration?

Yet Bye Bye Laundry is only a conceptual design. But maybe over time it will turn into a commercial.
