The Design
About Almia Loftsteikingarpotur
Almia er fjölnota loftsteikingarpottur hannaður fyrir eldun á borðplötu og framreiðslu við matarborðið. Innbyggður pottur í stíl við hollenska ofnpotta (Dutch oven) heldur utan um matinn á meðan á eldun stendur og má bera beint á matarborðið. Ávalur búkurinn sameinar körfuna og aðalhúsið í eina samfellda form, og yfirborðið er með mjúkri, mattri áferð. Einfalt viðmót gerir notandanum kleift að strjúka til að velja loftsteikingu, bakstur eða þurrkun, stilla tíma og hitastig, og ýta til að hefja eldun. Almia er hannaður til að falla vel að heimilisinnréttingum jafnt sem eldhúsnotkun.

- 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
