Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower
product design | stage 1: Development research
R500.00/HR | $30/HR
This includes all necessary precedent product research which dives into the functional & technical aspects of various products which include form, function, material, ergonomics and manufacturing and assembly methods. Precedent & Mood board research is used to influence all stages of the design process ensuring that the process is as efficient as possible.
product design | stage 2: Conceptualisation
R500.00/HR | $30/HR
This includes the exploration and refinement through hand drawn sketches by trained industrial designers. This crucial stage ensures that ideas are executed and explored appropriately with the aim of reaching a concept that suits all the guideline set by stage 1 development and client requirements. This stage will bring your product to life by narrowing down function and aesthetics on paper and in-turn produces parameters for stage 3 development
product design | stage 3: 3D CAD Development
R500.00/HR | $30/HR
This stage is essential for a variety of products as they transform stage 2 developments into a Computer Aided Design which assists with many design parameters such as functional features and aesthetics. Special software is used to ensure dimensional accuracy of products which could be used in the development of working prototypes and manufacture.
product design | stage 4: Concept renders\context renders
R500.00/HR | $30/HR
This stage includes various render methods to contextualize your concept within various design parameters such as functional visualization, aesthetic visualization and contextual visualization.
Computer Aided Design allows us to produce high quality renders which are useful for marketing, advertising and is pivotal in the design process as this gives the client and user a realistic representation of the product.
product design | stage 5: prototyping
R500.00/HR | $30/HR
Prototyping and model making is the process where by the designer/manufacturer brings the product to life through rapid prototyping methods and fabrication so that it may be tested in real life scenarios depending on the product application. This process is essential in the manufacturing process as it aids in the study of forms, materials, aesthetics, ergonomics and functionality.
product design | stage 6: Final prototype
R500.00/HR | $30/HR
This is the process of creating a final, and fully functional working prototype. The final product that is produced is meant to reflect and perform as the design process intended in all respective categories; manufacture, aesthetics, ergonomics and functionality.
