Washing machine/lounge seat concept

This is one form of Washing machine that illustrates signs of progress in technology. The Alternative Clothes cleaner designed by Harsha Vardhan from New Delhi, India works as a conceptual washing machine that doubles as a large seat. The machine does not use any water or detergent, rather, the inner chamber acts as a pressure washer and cleans the clothes with ionized air instead. That implies, it doesn’t need drying as well, which is the most tedious part of the cleaning process for some. It has two modes, active and passive and both allow you to sit on the machine. The design of the machine is inspired by the pebble. Also check out the demonstrative gallery after the jump.
