Proportions and space
We align the outer volume with components, dimensions and the intended environment. Form develops alongside the internal layout.
Industrial design
Form shaped around use.
From an initial sketch to a clear design direction.
From the first questions about use to a form that considers people, materials and manufacture. For physical products that need a clear direction.
NT–A2 / 01BLUEPRINT SKETCH
For manufacturers, founders and development teams who want to examine a new idea before investing in tooling and production.
01 / Development questions
What must the form resolve?
Human interaction
How is the product held, operated, opened or cleaned? We translate access and the sequence of use into specific design decisions.
Surfaces and character
We develop transitions, edges, parting lines and the relationship between materials. The product should have a distinct identity suited to its intended manufacture.
02 / What you receive
A clear handover for the next step.
We connect the sketches and selected design direction with the reasoning behind them. Where 3D development is included, we deliver a model for the agreed next step.
A definition of use, users and development constraints.
Concept directions with sketches and the reasoning behind them.
A selected direction for form, proportions and interaction.
A 3D model for the next agreed development stage.
The proposal defines scope, deliverables and formats for your product. Not every engagement includes all the tasks listed.
03 / What we need
Start with what you have.
You can start without a CAD model. A photograph, a basic sketch or an example product can help explain the problem.
- What you want to develop and who will use it.
- Approximate dimensions, key functions and intended production volume.
- Existing sketches, references or a sample product.
04 / Questions
Before we begin.
Answers to help you start the conversation about your product.
Do I need a finished brief?
No. A description of the problem is enough to begin. Together we identify what needs to be clarified before development.
Do you only design for mobility?
No. Mobility experience informs the approach, but the work also covers other physical products and industrial equipment.
What does a proposal include?
Agreed stages, scope and deliverables, milestones and review points. The scope is specific to your project.
Can we retain part of an existing design?
Yes. We first distinguish what must remain from what can be redesigned. This may include recognisable lines, dimensions, components or existing tooling.
When does engineering become involved?
We consider spatial and manufacturing constraints from the design stage. Detailed engineering can run alongside design or follow approval of the direction, depending on the product.
