Empathy
BA(Hons) Product Design, Class of 2017
This coin bank encourages user to empathise with those in need via clever design. An internal separator splits the coins into personal savings (the opaque area) and a charitable amount (glass base). Once the personal savings area is filled, additional coins will fall into the charitable area, suggesting that once you have enough, you can afford to provide to others.
