Production Technology: This product is manufactured by die-casting molding using the aviation alloy material , and CNC precision milling processing molding. The surface is processed through sandblasting, oxidation.
Design Challenge: In this project development, it was a big challenge to popularize parametric tools to the design team. Persuading the design team to use a new tool can feel like a drag on the overall project. But after learning about the new tools and the new ways of working mode brought by the new tools, we got the support of the whole team.
Research: In the design of this product, we studied the application of parametric design in the product. We used grasshopper, a plug-in of Rhino software as our main tool. The introduction of parametric design improves the efficiency of communication between designers and increases the speed of design iteration.In the design of "empty" business card case, the main surface of the product adopts parametric diamond-shaped stereogram, which decreases from the edge to the middle. Firstly, its unique mathematical beauty enhances the visual recognition of products. Secondly, the gradual change decoration pattern with rhythmic sense makes people can't help touching it, which increases the tactile experience of the product. The three-dimensional decoration pattern has directivity, which provides the basic functional coordinates for the product.
Inspiration: The design of the name card box breaks the feeling of mediocrity and cheap, let the ordinary things have a decent body. In the Internet Ages, using a name transfer ceremony and boundary information than the online social app, also have better information integrity. While the name card box have the DNA of internet which put the information in the first place. The design of this pen display the industrial beauty.
Project Duration: The project started in March 2017 in Beijing and finished in September 2018 in Beijing.
