Sometimes even something as simple as a basting brush can use some design intervention. Brush Button by Li Weisi, is simple and effective and it still manages to look sleek! The brush is a slim piece of plastic that has bristles on one end, and does a u-bend on the other end. Not only does this make it easy to keep the brush in your basting liquid container (or even in your kitchen storage for that matter), its novel design allows it to be kept on a tabletop in a way where the bristles don’t touch the dirty kitchen counter… a problem most people have with their basting brushes. The little u-bend not only knocks two birds with one stone, it’s also ridiculously simple to injection mold. Howzzat! The Brush Button is a winner of the Red Dot Design Award for the year 2015.
