About Model One Rèidio Eadar-Lìn Dab

Is e rèidio eadar-lìn DAB a th’ ann am Model One a tha a’ measgachadh stuthan dearbhte leis na teicneòlasan ùra. Tha an caibineat fiodha air a leudachadh nas fhaide chun aghaidh fhad ‘s a tha e a’ còmhdach cuibhreann ann an cumadh ceàrnagach gus cuideam a chuir air dearbhteachd an stuth fiodha. Tha crìochnachadh matte, anti-glare aig a’ phannal smachd agus an taisbeanadh gus an teicneòlas a chumail neo-fhaicsinneach agus falaichte agus gus fìor chleachdadh stuthan a bhrosnachadh san toradh. Bidh an cosgais gun uèir gu h-àrd a’ cuideachadh an neach-cleachdaidh gus uairean fada a chumail a’ faighinn tlachd às a’ cheòl, fhad ‘s a tha iad a’ cur cosgais air na h-innealan gluasadach aca agus a’ cumail an rèidio ann am meadhan a bheatha, a-rithist.

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.
