The name says it all! The Hook Sponge by designer Robert Audroué is a perfect example of how sometimes the simplest modification (even of an already simple product) can make a world of difference. Keep it handy on the kitchen faucet, a shower-head or any other place that needs regular cleaning.

Product alreay sold here in Italy as well in 2008, for a supermarket company called Coop. That sponge I’m talking about was designed for a competition called EUREKA! organized by Giulio Iacchetti, art director of Coop at the time.
