METHOD
"about
as stylish as a household cleaner can get"
-New York Magazine
Why is it that most products for cleaning the home look
so bad, smell so bad, and contain chemicals that you wouldn't want
to leave out on your counter?
In the summer of 2000, two entrepreneurs from the San
Francisco Bay Area set about to give the cleaning category a much needed
face-lift. Eric Ryan, a style and brand fanatic, enlisted the help of his
high-school buddy Adam Lowry, a chemical engineer from Stanford University
and method home care™ was born. The goal was to evolve the household
cleaner from an object that lives under the sink to a "must-have"
counter-top accessory.
method™'s first product line of five spray cleaners was
such a success in test market that Eric and Adam quickly recruited a
talented team to build the business. Industry experts from Williams
Sonoma, and suppliers to The Gap, Bath and Body Works and The Limited
rounded out the team.
method™ believes that cleaning your home should also be a
reflection of whom you are and how you want to live. method™ is fresh
aromas, innovative packaging, and a belief that the act of cleaning is not
only the elimination of dirt but also the creation of a beautiful, pure
and uncompromised environment.
The
method™ team is passionately focused on bringing you great looking,
great smelling and environmentally friendly products for your home
- available at everyday prices.

DISH SOAPS |
Revolutionary dish soap |
 |
METHOD's new line of dish soaps was just released and is available in
select markets. What’s unique about them? How about a bottle that you
don’t have to invert to use. Just pick up and squeeze to instantly
dispense soap without a mess. Fragrances are crafted from essential
oils and the formula is A+.
Their
advanced formula lifts food particles from dishes and breaks down
grease and baked-on foods on contact. A fast-rinse formula lowers
surface tension allowing the soap to rinse cleanly and immediately.
And of course all method products are non-toxic, environmentally safe
with no phosphates and absolutely no animal testing.

daily shower spray
$6.00
28 fl oz bottle
 |
Just
leave this bottle in your shower and spray all surfaces after each
shower. This dissolves soap scum and hard water stains while
preventing mildew from growing. It works by forming a dry, relatively
clear film which when water hits it during your next shower activates
it and cleans the shower. Soap scum finds the surface too "slippery"
to attach to and it rinses off with the water down the drain. Think of
it as a self-cleaner for your shower. It is absolutely safe with no
toxic vapors. Just the beautiful scent of Indonesian Ylang-Ylang.
For best results start with a clean shower. However, if starting
with a soiled shower expect to see hard water stains and soap scum
disappear in about 10 days. Safe on granite, tile and marble.

| MUDHAUS
the visual designer behind METHOD
"trade
Mr. Clean's mug for a slick-looking multisurface solution"
-Time Out
In
that same summer of 2000, method founders Eric Ryan and Adam Lowry
called Michael Rutchik at MUDHAUS with an idea: how about a cleaning
product that doesn't need to be hidden under the sink? A brand was
born.
Los
Angeles design and photography studio, MUDHAUS (mudhaus.com),
creates the visual language, identity and graphic architecture of
the method product line: vivid colors, clean lines and playful imagery
are brought together into a compact and elegant visual design that
makes itself at home in your home.
