"I was staring at the bathroom floor etc. I imagined a container under every 'floor tile' (which is actually linoleum in my bathroom, to be specific, but that doesn't really matter)."
Rebecca Hyndman, an 18-year-old senior at Thomas Jefferson High School, invented an under-floor storage system that utilizes containers with floor tiles as lids. Her patent, numbered 7,726,080, was issued on June 1, 2010, after being filed on January 4, 2008. The invention aims to maximize vertical space in bathrooms and kitchens by allowing removable containers to rest on floor joists, with troughs for catching water. Rebecca conceived the idea while contemplating her bathroom floor, envisioning a practical solution for storage.
