Product design, material
Dr.Kubek is the result of a project called "24/7". It is a toothbrush cup with a built in timer. The cup can be squeezed and it takes between two and three minutes until Dr.Kubek regains its original size. This is the time you should take to brush your teeth. The prototype is made out of latex covered foam.
The project "24/7" was meant to rethink the strange thing called "time". The aim was to design a watch for a very specific use.
