Animated cleaning
Japanese manufacturer Teramoto has added two new products to its design-friendly TIDY (Teramoto Industrial Design Yard) line of goods. The Kop Roll Cleaner (right) and the Kop Handy Mop both have the same distinct container — that of a simple cup — which compliment the products' wooden handles. The former is a lint roller that removes fluff from clothing, carpets and furniture with rolls of tape available in two graphic designs: Forest or Ocean. As part of the design, each roll of tape has a series of bird images that are flying in the direction that the user should roll for maximum effect. The Handy Mop is a duster with fine bristles that are so soft they can reach into any corner. It's also chemical-free, which means it is easily washed and reused. Both the Kop Roll Cleaner and Kop Handy Mop sell for ¥2,625 and are available with white or brown cups. An extra twin-set of tape (one of each pattern) is ¥735, while spare Handy Mop bristles cost ¥1,050.
