Expanding the possibilities of home carbonation
The myDRINK Sparkling Beverage Maker was developed to rethink the traditional home carbonation system. Instead of limiting users to sparkling water, the project introduced a patented solution that enables fresh fruit juices, homemade lemonades, vegetable drinks and even selected alcoholic beverages to be carbonated directly in the bottle. This significantly expands the possibilities of home beverage preparation while maintaining a simple and intuitive user experience.
At the heart of the product is an innovative dual-valve system that controls pressure release according to the type of beverage. While sparkling water can be vented quickly, flavoured drinks require slower, controlled depressurisation to prevent excessive foaming. Combined with an integrated citrus juicer and funnel, the system allows fresh ingredients to be prepared, carbonated and served within a single workflow.
Rather than expressing innovation through complexity, the design focuses on clarity, ergonomics and everyday usability. Clean architectural forms, intuitive operation and carefully integrated functional details create a product that feels equally at home in contemporary kitchens and social settings.
More than a sparkling water maker, myDRINK demonstrates how product innovation can transform a familiar appliance into a versatile platform for preparing a wide variety of sparkling beverages.
