Product Design.
I design outstanding housing and interaction concepts for your product and accompany your development process from start to finish to ensure the best possible results.

Persona definition & Use Context
I analyze the use context and other important factors that influence product development. Based on this, we establish appropriate requirements that help us to develop a suitable design and interaction concepts for the product.
Research
Ideation Sketching
Based on the analysis and the requirements I create different housing and interaction concepts.
In this phase of the process I use sketching, 3D modeling and rendering tools.
In the prototyping phase, I create initial prototypes to evaluate form, proportions and interaction.
For prototyping, I use 3D printing and other rapid prototyping methods. The testing goes beyond the prototyping phase and is an essential part of the product development cycles.
Prototyping & Testing
Implementation
I provide detailed definitions of colors, materials and shapes for the implementation of the housing design, as well as CAD data and other important information for production.
Ongoing testing and adaption of the design is key to bring the vision to life in a final series product.
That is why I also accompany the final phase of product development in order to be able to react to emerging changes with an appropriate adaptation of the design definition.
DELIVERABLES
SHAPE & DETAILS
I provide CAD data of the visible surfaces. As well as rednerings that visualize the complete external appearance of the product.
CMF
Color, Material, Finish.
Definition of colors, materials and surface structures of the respective housing parts.
INTERACTION
It defines which use cases the product should cover and how the interaction with the user is structured.
GUIDELINES
To ensure a uniform design language for future products, I generate guidelines from the product design that can be used across all design departments.
