The Design

About One Line Gartenmöbel

One Line ist eine Gartenmöbelkollektion, die mobile Geräte mit Solarenergie auflädt. Zur Kollektion gehören ein Couchtisch, eine Sonnenliege und ein Hochtisch. Solarzellen mit einer Gesamtleistung von 26 Watt sind in einem dezenten Gehäuse untergebracht und laden einen internen Akku. Ein voll geladener Akku kann acht bis zehn Smartphones über USB- und USB-C-Anschlüsse aufladen. Eine Touch-Taste schaltet das LED-Licht unter der Tischplatte ein. Die Gehäuse bestehen aus pulverbeschichtetem Stahl und Aluminium. Alle Teile sind abnehmbar und können somit gewartet, ersetzt oder recycelt werden.

Production Technology: the products casing are made of powder-coated steel and aluminum. All additional elements are easily removable, which allows for quick service and replacement of components. The photovoltaic panel is not an integral part, after the product has been used up all components can be recycled.
Design Challenge: The engineering challenge was to create lightweight and durable structures that could fit all electronic components.
Research: During tests, we checked the demand for additional possibility of charging phones outdoors. We collected data from our other products equipped with chargers. Studies have shown that around 10-15 people use the charger daily, charging the phone for an average of 20 minutes. This allowed us to estimate the size of the solar panel and battery capacity.
Inspiration: The growing demand for charging mobile devices outdoors was inspiriation to this project. Mobile devices have become our everyday life and it is hard to imagine life without them today. The assumption of the project was to prepare a devices that allows you to charge the phone using only solar energy. The look of the table was to be minimalist, one of the inspirations was the lack table, the most popular table in the world available.
Project Duration: the project was developed in Warsaw. Conceptual work lasted from May 2019. After many prototypes and tests, the project was finally implemented in January 2020.
Operation Flow: The table is equipped with a photovoltaic panel that charges the battery placed inside. When the battery is fully charged it can then charge 8-10 smartphones. If you want to charge your phone, you can use the USB or USB-C socket. In addition, the table is equipped with LED backlight activated by a touch button.
