Airwash Waterless Washing Machine

Airwash is a waterless washing machine for the home of 2020. Eliminating the use of detergent and precious water resources, it cleans clothes with pressurized air and negative ions - nature's cleansing agent. Its form is inspired by the waterfall, nature?s negative ion generator. Its touch-light interface marries function with emotion, humanizing the often-mechanical experience when handling household appliances. Liberated from the laundry area, Airwash is a symbol of wellness and sophistication, designed for living spaces and focal points in the home.


This Airwash is not available so we will have to wait a little longer before we see this in reality in our bedrooms.

The Airwash takes "dry-cleaning" to a new level.
