ÉCLOS Refill Ritual

A countertop skincare vessel whose collar turns 45° on two opposed lugs to release a sealed pump cartridge — three mechanisms compared, one taken to a checked CAD fit model.

ÉCLOS Refill Ritual — Bayonet-collar refill mechanism for a countertop skincare vessel

01 — The project

ÉCLOS Refill Ritual

Three refill mechanisms were compared — threaded, bayonet and squeeze-release — and the bayonet was selected for its short, deliberate action and visible open/closed alignment. The track is oriented so the collar closes clockwise.

It is a digital fit study: nothing has been printed or tested, rotation checks are static samples, and the shoulder still has zero clearance — an open issue.

Design study
Stage
Design studyOne question taken deep — a mechanism, an interface, a form or a colour system — in CAD or drawings. Not a complete product.
What exists
Three mechanism studies and a three-part CAD fit model.
Physical evidence
None — not printed or tested.
Not claimed
  • Rotation or retention under load
  • Real pump envelope
