Kyuhong Kim’s Darimeven concept combines static electricity and dual-function design for effortless ironing, tested via 3D-printed prototypes.

A new concept by designer Kyuhong Kim could change how we tackle wrinkled clothing. The Darimeven, a dual-purpose steam iron, uses static electricity to pull fabric toward its heat modules making it possible to iron garments even while they hang on a hanger.

The design, tested through iterative 3D-printed prototypes, prioritizes efficiency and durability with a robust aluminum alloy build. While still in the conceptual phase, the Darimeven hints at a future where household chores become faster and more intuitive.

If realized, this innovation could push boundaries in home appliance design, merging static electricity’s untapped potential with the rapid prototyping advantages of 3D printing. For now, it remains a fascinating glimpse into the next wave of garment care tech.
