Steve B. came up with a solution for the never hot or cold enough dilemma: a bottle that can heat or cool beverages and keep them a desired temperature. And the Aklim8 was born.

Designed around a vacuum bottle, it has rechargeable batteries and refillable coolant. From his initial drawings we helped him create a functional, attractive device.

Throughout the many design iterations, we were able to supply Steve with the 3D model files which he was able print with his 3D printer.

This collaborative process helped produce a product he was very happy with and helped tremendously with the promotion phase because it was designed as he envisioned it.
