Flow - A community sharing system of greywater and blackwater

This assignment aimed to make us start thinking about a sustainable solution that would help with problems that the UK will have to face in 5 to 10 years. Flow is a water management system designed to facilitate the collective sharing of water in a community. Unlike traditional water systems that focus on water collection, Flow allows users to collect, process and reuse greywater, blackwater and rainwater. The system aims to address increasing water demand while mitigating the effects of water scarcity due to climate change. In our pictorial, we showcase the entire process from idea generation to prototyping, discussing each stage. Through our research, we found that an individual's efforts to reduce water consumption cannot manage to protect the environment. Instead, the participation of the entire community is required.
