The Process
The process of creating something new, something that’s never been done, and bringing this idea to life may seem intimidating, so lets break it down, step by step:
Design Discovery & strategy
Discover & define your true north, your reason for being, your brand’s x-factor and how to effectively communicate this to your most valuable clients
Define your ideal customers and align their needs to your business goals
Identify opportunities for taking your business to the next level and prioritize brand awareness, revenue generation, sustainable product innovation and optimizing operations
Co-create a unique design strategy with clear, actionable insights and a rock solid plan of execution for harnessing the power of good design to bring measurable value and impact to your business
industrial design
Design Research: From observational studies to focus group discussions, we glean insights from watching people and asking the right questions. These invaluable discovery sessions result in actionable learnings that give our designs context and deeper meaning
Trend & Market Analysis
Design Language Development: Design language gives a product direction and a clear message, it’s like a vision statement for your product
Product Styling: First impressions count. We’re talking timeless, meaningful elegance as opposed to fashion fads
Detailed Product Specifications
Mechanical Concept Development
Color Material & Finishing
Experience Strategy: It’s all about how the product/service/etc makes you feel
PRODUCT ENGINEERING
POC Development: We build Proof Of Concept models to make sure an idea is technologically feasible and economically viable
Mechanical Design & Engineering
Electronics & Electrical Engineering
Software Engineering
Engineering Optimization / Design for X: DFM – Design for optimal manufacturing cost
Prototype Manufacturing & Validation ; We build the prototypes, and then proceed to torture (test) them
RAPID PROTOTYPING
Custom large scale mockups: Some prototypes are so unique, no 3D printer can build them. Really!!
CNC Machining: Also known as traditional prototyping. Extremely labor intensive, but gives the best quality and greatest flexibility of materials
Metalworking
3D Printing: Awesome technology, constantly evolving and improving. Great for fast turnaround models for design verification throughout the development phase
FDM: Fused Deposition Modeling
SLA: Stereolithography
SLS: Selective Laser Sintering
product commercialization
Component Sourcing: Choosing the best components for the best price, certainly no easy task
Vendor Qualification & Selection: We do comprehensive site visits and audit our suppliers so that you don’t have to
Production Management: We make sure things go smoothly when you start manufacturing your product in large quantities
Channel & Logistics: The last thing you want to worry about when your product is about to hit the market
