I like it.

Functionally, I think everyone worries WAY too much about how people will learn to use it. History shows that they do, they just may need training.

Economically, you can now place ONE fountain wherer you had two of different heights…reducing the space & cost considerably.

Whether or not you implement the temperature switch (and I’d do it with an analog turn valve, not as either or. Gives you more choice and is cheap to implement.)

Two issues. One is height of fountain stream–a major issue with any fountains is either not enough or too much pressure. It’s a major issue for owners and users alike.

Two is vandal-proofing. The main issue is that you’ve given them two of the worst things you can give a vandal–built-in leverage and a moving part!

I have to agree with Assis here, Carl ain’t that bright, because just to have a tap in the middle of know where is pretty daft, lol plus Taps have too many contact points for hygienic reasons.

By going against a water fountain his also going against, qwerty or stylus on smartphones. It all comes down to preference and style.

the water does not pass through the platform before it goes into the bottle. different water source. it doesnt make much sense to filter the water and purposely make it dirty before you consume.

maybe thats something for me to work on. its hard combining a 28 page design into just a few.

I’ve been to Carl’s site too, and for the one trying to convince us a tap is better than a drinking fountain just because the fountain is more elaborated, a website about design competitions seems preeeeetty shallow. I expected to see some militance like “let’s move back in the forests”
Oh, and, sorry, but I have to say it: A jet-ski is a reaaaally relevant product in this world.
