Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- The design of the product is quite minimalistic, with only a circular button on the shell. To make it more interesting, the design use images of famous musicians in the packaging, contributing to a personification of the product: the oval shape becomes the head, and the button becomes an open mouth. This creates the image of a composer passionately singing or vigorously conducting an orchestra, giving voice to an otherwise low-profile product, at the same time highlighting its design element.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- dimension: height 79mm, Length 110mm, width 28mm
- Tags
- Handset, electronic, packaging, colorful, musician
- Production Technology
- The visual design require to hide the wires, only leave the headset and controller out. Therefore the packaging structure design must consider how to hide the wires and still keep the whole packaging structure solidly. By using PET tray inside and a paper cover outside, the front of the packaging only shows the handset and controller.
material: Paper, PET - Design Challenge
- As the target audiences are 18 to 29 year-olds, the design should make the products most close to the trendy of young's culture.
- Research
- Mi Bluetooth headset is a low profile product that targets the lower end of the sports headset market. The retail price for the product is 10 Euro in China. The overall packaging budget was limited to about 0.6 Euro. So it is the design task to add some attractive elements to its packaging and make it outstanding from the shelves.
- Inspiration
- In current China, the young generation has a rage for animation, comics, and games. They spontaneously create a lot of trending content that personified objects into lively characters. To make this low-profit product easier to approach the young generation, our design strategy is to imbue a product with personality and to visually personify the product.
- Project Duration
- The project started in April 2018 and finished in April 2019 in Beijing, China
- Operation Flow
