Design Challenge
The challenge with this project was to come up with a product that would be pleasant for the user while maintaining the quality of the blender. Designing a pattern makes it enjoyable for the user while providing a better grip was a challenge of this project
Research
People like to carry their personal blender with them for a healthy lifestyle. Therefore, the aesthetic aspect was considered in order to create a small personal blender when you would like to drink in your office or in the car. In order to hide the unorganized material remaining on the glass of the blender, and to create an aesthetic experience for the user, the silicone pattern is designed to provide a sure grip for the user. In addition, a small transparent window is available to check on its progress
Inspiration
With the design of the Wave Blender we chose to look at a future market where users adopt a more nomadic and remote lifestyle. This device integrates the entire mechanism into a compact package, the size of a large water bottle, allowing the user to bring the entire blending experience with them. Considering the current trends, we move into more expressive ambiance. The pattern in the exterior silicone provides increased grip. In addition, the exterior is inspired by the flow of the material as it forms.
Project Duration
The projected started in January 2019 in Los Angeles and finished in April 2019, and was exhibited in ArtCenter College of Design Studio in 2019.
Operation Flow
The companion app empowers you to express yourself by helping you choose a beautifully colored beverage to suit your mood. The Palette of Fruit companion app gives users a new way to interact with their nutrition. Choose a color palette to suit your mood and the app will give you recipes, shopping lists and nutritional content of your desired beverage. This blender uses a compact, maintenance free brush less motor, rechargeable batteries and a USB charging plug.
