Abstract

The spread of Covid-19 since March 2020 in Indonesia has brought a lot of changes, especially in people's daily behavior. Many people started to exercise and consume healthy food, also wearing a face mask in public places. In addition, people also start to bring hand sanitizers to sterilize their hands or any surfaces that they touch. Unfortunately, the designs of hand sanitizer bottles are not designed for the pandemic era. Most of the bottles in the market are still using pre-Covid designs that do not accommodate the needs of the user that would prefer to touch surfaces as minimum as possible. Existing bottle designs do not help users to minimize touch with small surfaces like ATM (Automatic Teller Machine) and EDC (Electronic Data Capture) machine buttons, while also enabling easy access to the sanitizer by encouraging pocket-placement of the hand sanitizer by design. This project aimed to design a new type of hand sanitizer bottle that accommodates people's behavior in the pandemic era. In order to do that, this project implement the Design Thinking method from Stanford D-School with emphasizing on behavior observation, with the addition of Problem Definition theory by Kees Dorst. The final result of this project is PUNTO, a hand sanitizer bottle with a ballpoint cap-inspired shape that could be used to press small buttons. Based on the testing and evaluation process, PUNTO succeeds to accommodate the user's behavior that has been overlooked by other hand sanitizer bottle's design. However, there is some potential for future development, especially in the activities that related with touch screen. PUNTO is currently in the process of registering for Intellectual Property Rights and afterward will be open for further commercialization.
