The Design

About Model One Dab Internetradio

Model One is 'n DAB-internetradio wat die outentieke materiaal met die nuwe tegnologieë meng. Die houtkas word verder na die voorkant uitgebrei terwyl dit 'n vierkantige gedeelte bedek om die egtheid van die houtmateriaal meer te beklemtoon. Beide die beheerpaneel en die skerm het mat, anti-glans afwerking om die tegnologie onsigbaar en verborge te hou en die werklike materiaalgebruik in die produk te bevorder. Die draadlose laai bo-op help gebruikers om lang ure van musiek te geniet, terwyl hulle hul mobiele toestelle laai en die radio weer in die middel van die lewe hou.

Production Technology: Body is made of wood. This particular wood allows to increase the thickness of the cabinet to achieve a better sound. The control panel and back cover are made of ABS plastic.
Design Challenge: Wooden radio is a very polluted market with many similar designs. the challenge in this project was to provide a unique style, while keeping the cabinet as wood. The proportions and visual balance between the wood and plastic was the real attention point during the design process.
Research: DAB Internet Radio is a product with a specialised target user. During the research stage, first an email based online survey with the help of internet radio channels was conducted and the user personas are created accordingly. A further research is created by asking more design relevant questions with a more selected audience through online interviews. The feedbacks related to increasing visibility of the "wood feeling" in the front face and charging mobile devices while operating the radio were proved to be essential needs of the target user.
Inspiration: Wood has always been a true material bringing elegance and authenticity into the use environment. The main inspiration point in this project was to create a design which promotes the technology in an hidden way to keep the elegance high.
Project Duration: The project started in December 2019 and finished in March 2020 in Hong Kong.
Operation Flow: the control panel is located in the front. there is an OLED screen to show the functions and operated by 2 knobs and button combinations. There is a separated CD player located on the top of the front panel.
