In response to the growing awareness of disaster prevention, we have designed a new type of rainwater tank "Rain Harvest" that will be useful in times of disaster. The problem with existing rainwater tanks was that if they were unused for a long period of time, new rainwater would not flow in, and the water in the tanks would decay, making it impossible to use them even if you suddenly wanted to. The newly developed rainwater tank discharges water stored with garbage when it rains, so it can store as clean water as possible. The shape of the tank was also made into a beautiful shape to withstand the weight of water, making it appealing to housewives, the main target. This product won the Good Design Award in 2019, was selected as "My Favorite Design", and achieved "Makuake" Cloud Founding 300%.
