BA (Hons) in Product Design

I am Kitson, a designer focused on technology-driven and industrial-oriented products. With a background in engineering, I developed a solid understanding of materials, mechanics, and product functionality. Meanwhile, I found my interest lies in exploring how existing technologies can be reinterpreted into practical and meaningful designs. I am driven to create solutions that balance feasibility, user needs, and aesthetics. My work combines technical knowledge with a strong sensitivity to user experience, aiming to transform innovative ideas into realistic products for everyday use.

In Hong Kong, many people enjoy dining out. Aside from taste and ingredients, have you ever noticed waiters clearing used dishes or handling cash, then serving food without washing hands? This may cause psychological discomfort and even lead to gastrointestinal illness. Most workers understand hygiene standards, but due to workflow and efficiency, frequent handwashing is not always practical.

Rapid Cleanse is a next-generation hand hygiene device for restaurants, addressing the limitations of slow, inconvenient, and compliance dependent solution. Rapid Cleanse provides fast, minimally disruptive hand hygiene. Its key components include front nozzles for food-safe alcohol spray, rear fans air curtain and dryer, LiDAR sensors for hand detection, and a hydrophobic-coated glass base. As users pass their hands through, it automatically activates alcohol spray and Far-UVC light, ensuring hands are adequately sanitized for safe food handling.

香港人向來喜愛外出用餐。除了食物味道和食材品質,餐廳的衛生條件也是重要考慮因素,您是否曾見過侍應清理用過的餐具或處理現金後,未經洗手便直接上菜?此舉不僅令顧客產生心理不適,更有機會增加腸胃疾病的傳播風險。爲此,本設計提出「Rapid Cleanse」一款專爲 是為餐飲環境設計的新世代手部衞生裝置,提供快速且不干擾工作流程的潔手解決方案。當侍應將雙手靠近裝置時,系統即時透過光學雷達感應手部位置,隨即自動噴灑食用級酒精並同步啟動遠紫外線消毒,確保令雙手達到可安全處理食物的潔淨標準。
