Aquivio

Smart hydration platform that pairs IoT-enabled hydration stations with software to deliver 9.5 pH alkaline, hydrogen-infused water and customizable infusions (flavors/functional ingredients) on demand.

For Aquivio’s smart hydration station, my goal was to design an intuitive, frictionless experience that works seamlessly in a physical, self-service environment.

The machine is used in hotels, gyms, and offices — environments where users interact briefly and expect clarity.
This required:

  • Large touch targets

  • Clear visual hierarchy

  • Minimal cognitive load

  • Fast, confident decision-making

The core challenge was balancing simplicity and flexibility:

  • Allow users to quickly select from prebuilt functional drinks

  • While also giving them full control to build their own personalized hydration mix

Throughout the customization flow:

  • A persistent summary displays selected ingredients and intensity levels

  • Visual feedback updates in real time

  • Users can easily modify or remove any ingredient at any step
