Smart Water vs. Deer Park

Smart Water
The design of Smart Water bottles comes off as sleek and sophisticated. The narrow shape of the bottle accomplishes the goal of standing out amongst other water bottles. The tall size of the bottle accomplishes this as well, allowing for a more modern look. The unique tallness of the bottle may take away from functionality, however, because it can be a pain to hold for extended periods of time, and is more easily to fall over when it is sat down on a flat surface. Nevertheless, the small diameter and elongated structure makes for a sophisticated and modern looking water bottle that you would love to be seen drinking. In addition, the bottle material is made of a hard plastic that isn’t malleable, so the shape of the bottle remains constant despite any pressure. The Smart Water logo accommodates the sleekness of the bottle shape as well. The picture of the blue water drop and the white and blue lettering comes off as extremely simple, but the lack of extravagant design gives the bottle a clean and neat look. Overall, the design of Smart Water stands out in a way that is revolutionary, and gives off a “high-tech”, cool impression that we all crave.

Deer Park
The design of Deer Park water bottles can be considered rather traditional, in a sense that it is shaped like most other water bottles. The shape of the bottle is short and relatively wider than that of Smart Water. The larger diameter allows for a more traditional look, and great functionality. The wider shape lets the bottle remain upright when resting on a flat surface and the shortness of the bottle allows for easier storage and holding, easily fitting into backpacks and significantly easy to hold. The bottle contains a steep indentation near the center of the bottle, for easier accessibility and drinking so the indentation feels rather comfortable for the drinker. The material of the plastic is very thin, however, so the bottle bends out of shape rather easily compared to Smart Water bottles. As for the logo of Deer Park water bottles, it is quite elaborate, with a mural of a sunset against the green forest. This picture gives the water bottle a “traditional-looking” appearance that people can feel comfortable with. Overall, Deer Park water bottles are one-of-a-kind in the fact that it gives off a “homey” vibe with its traditional design and intricate logo.
