Designing a product must be a demanding job. That’s why some manufacturers deserve an award for creativity because, in addition to thinking that an object fulfills its function, they add details that make it easier to use. In a world where design almost always reigns supreme, practicality becomes a unique concept, and the inventors below have won our hearts for it.
