Matteo Ercole designs the Willy, which is an air purifier that stands in the middle of a room. It is detailed with a slight pop of color and two slots on the front that resemble the look of a friendly face. This makes it more inviting in the presence of children.
What seems like eyes are actually functioning more as ‘ears’ as it is incorporated with microphones that help pick up sounds and allow the head to change its direction. In terms of its standard air purifier parts, there are the HEPA H13 filters. The controls of the device are at the top of the head, ensuring that it stays out of the reach of children.
