I got my inspiration from the cheep bottles at Kroger with simple shapes and logos. The bottle have plenty of room for detergent and is designed to be held with one hand. 

I used curves and loft to get the main shape I the bottle and extruded a curve where I wanted the handle to be and then used the extrusion to spit the bottle so that I could create the smooth handle through loft and filletEdge. I created the cap and screwthred by creating a cylinder and marching a helix to it and sweeping a curve to create the third. I used filletEdge on the thred and used Boolean on my cap to match them together. 

I wanted to create a very simple bottle with very generic colors and I felt that using matt blue and red plastic was a perfect fit. I then created a logo for the bottle and I thought that naked edges is something that we want to get rid of from our models so I based the logo on that idea.
