Condense was conceived as an exploration of natural water-collecting systems. Early inspiration came from mist captured in spider webs and Spanish moss. Further research revealed that mist collection is highly climate-specific, prompting a shift toward dew collection as a more adaptable solution. In this process, wet lupinus emerged as a natural form well suited to efficient dew collection.

Condense takes inspiration from natural water-collecting systems and applies scientific analysis to identify effective methods for harvesting water from the air. Early explorations included creating artificial spider webs, reviewing research on various man-made atmospheric water collectors, and conducting an in-depth analysis of the angles and geometry of wet lupinus. From the outset, the product was defined by the need to be lightweight, portable, and robust enough to withstand harsh environmental conditions.
