Double Potato Masher

client: Crate & Barrel

A unique and challenging design, I created a double masher where the bottom pulverizer channels up and through the top masher.

The handle contains a spring that provides tension and release to easily mash.

This design was a top seller for Crate & Barrel for several years.

SKILLS & TOOLS UTILIZED
pen, pencil and marker

I designed the handle’s knob to ergonomically fit within the palm of the user’s hand. It provides a more secure grip to steady the user’s control.

The rolled steel guides channel through the top grate allowing for a smooth and steady action.
