About Almia Fritjez na vrući vazduh

Almia je multifunkcionalni fritjez na vrući vazduh dizajniran za kuhanje na kuhinjskoj radnoj površini i posluživanje za stolom. Integrisana posuda u stilu holandske rerne (Dutch oven) drži hranu tokom kuhanja i može se direktno odnijeti na trpezarijski sto. Zaobljeno tijelo spaja korpu i glavno kućište u jednu kontinuiranu formu, a površine imaju mekan mat završni sloj. Jednostavan interfejs omogućava korisniku da prevlačenjem odabere pečenje na vrućem vazduhu, pečenje u rerni ili dehidriranje, podesi vrijeme i temperaturu, te pritisne dugme za početak rada. Almia je osmišljena tako da se uklopi kako u kućni enterijer, tako i u kuhinjsku upotrebu.

Unique Properties: ALMIA represents a decor-complementary product seamlessly transitioning from an air fryer on the countertop to a ready-made meal on the dinner table, courtesy of its integrated Dutch-oven style pot. Serving as the evolution of the conventional air fryer, ALMIA embodies a soft matte aesthetic and a balanced user interface tailored to the needs of meal preparation, effortlessly guiding users from kitchen to dinner table without missing a beat

Design Challenge: Ideating around the very build of the airfryer to create a design form that harmoniously blending the basket and main body took the most consideration. What curves, form continuity, and shape can be most effective were constant questions?
Research: After creating a competitor analysis chart with over 50 air fryers within the market, I defined their strengths, concerns, and flaws of the features. Two Venn diagrams were create to define the forms and features within those air fryers. One that overlapped "Microwave", "Basket" and "Toaster Oven" forms and one that overlapped "Airfryer", "Pressure Cooker", and "Oven" centered features. Using that quantitative data, I performed secondary research to understand drivers and restraints as well.
Inspiration: While airfryers are growing rapidly in customer ownership as one of the highest trending kitchen appliances, the function and aesthetics have been stagnant with industrial and metal forward materials. With research into the competitive market and user current sensibilities, ALMIA serves as advancement to the to the current architecture of Airfryer and complements ones interior design sense.
Project Duration: The project started in November 2023 and finished in April 2024 in Phoenix, AZ
Operation Flow: After turning on ALMIA, simply swipe to your preferred cooking setting whether it'd be airfry, bake, or dehydrate, pick the time and temperature for your meal, and press to start. After your meal is prepared, simple bring the pot from the airfryer instantly to the table fore your to enjoy
