Adjustable Rolling Pin

This design project was similar to the cliché of ‘building a better mousetrap,’ it would seem difficult to improve a device as elegantly simple and durable as the rolling pin as it is one of the oldest kitchen utensils ever made. It is also one of the simplest. And although it fulfils its purpose to roll dough out, what is to say it can’t be taken a step further?

The problem however comes by taking this beautifully simple and elegant product and improving it but keeping it to that low level of simplicity. 
Simplicity is the key to product design. The way that it doesn’t need to be described or shown how to work, it’s simply self-describable. But what is not to say that although the consumer sees it as fantastically simple, the design of it is completely opposite.

​With all the components and different functions the product aims to achieve, the design of it dictates complicated. But sometimes “Simplicities are enormously complex” (Richard O. Moore). And that is the philosophy this product follows. Creating simplicity through complexity.
