Traditional measuring cups create unnecessary drawer clutter, with long handles, multiple parts that get lost, and stacked sets that are annoying to take apart and put back together

A measuring tool used to measure scales starting from 1/8th of a cup, and builds up to 1 cup through a series of rings
Exploring design solutions to ensure the rings remain leak proof at the seams
Compressed silicon blocks liquids from leaking in between the layered rings
CUPS DIMENSIONS
FORM EXPLORATION IN CAD
BiT simplifies kitchen measuring through a stackable design
Compact and clutter-free, its ring-based form saves space, fits neatly in drawers, and keeps measurements precise and easy to read.
SERIES OF RINGS
Builds up starting from the smallest measurement of 1/8 cup and expanding up to 1 full cup.
2 PARTS ONLY
Labeled split points along its body. The user splits the product at the desired measurement mark
SILICON RING
Blocks liquids from leaking between the series of rings
BiT removes the handle found in typical measuring cups to save kitchen space
Side cutouts replace a handle. It creates room for the hand to hold the measuring cup ergonomically
Grab the measuring cup
Split the cup at the desired measurement
Pour the ingredient into the cup
Empty the cup into the mixing bowl
Wash the section of the cup that was used
Snap the cleaned section back into place
