Begin
at the beginning.
That is our motto and the guarantee for your success. In a 5 step product development process, we turn your idea into a manufacturable and financially feasible product that meets your needs and those of the end user.
01 Design sprint.
In just 4 days, we define your product together and test a prototype with your target group. In this way, we get to know how your customers will react to the product before investing time and costs in its development.
Preparatory intake
During a preparatory intake, we are all ears. We take a closer look at the challenges with regard to your future product and put together the right team to steer the design sprint in the right direction.
Sprint week
Day 1: map & sketch
Day 2: decide & storyboard
- Presentation of the sketches to the sprint team
- Together we make a selection together
- Creation of a storyboard based on the selected sketches
Day 3: design & prototype
On day 3, we convert the storyboard into a prototype / design in accordance with the fake it principle and prepare the customer test for the next day. Because of the approach from the customer perspective, the prototype can be realised in 1 day.
Day 4: interview & document
- We interview the customers you have selected
- We monitor their reactions to the prototype / design
Process, report & delivery
We process the feedback from the test users and formulate the next steps in a clear report which we personally explain.
02 Product scan.
What do you want to achieve with your product? How should your product be built? Which production method is the most suitable and which materials can be used?
In this phase we map out the technical and economic requirements to convert your idea into a manufacturable product
1. Product strategy
- use and conditions of use
- potential market
- specific technical requirements
- ...
2. Product brainstorm
3. Material and technology advice
Our team selects the best concepts from the product brainstorming session and searches for the most suitable production method and materials.
In this way, we determine the possible direction and propose an optimal material-technology combination.
4. 3D Mockup
5. Product blueprint
- a projection of the different parts of the product and the associated moulds
- an overview with the next steps
03 Product design.
Here, the design is central, and based on the chosen technology. A good technical basis is essential for designing a beautiful product. A creative but realistic design also increases the chance of success.
This undoubtedly means “kill your darlings”, but is not necessarily a restriction on the designer. A great designer excels with a beautiful design in terms of budgetary and technological feasibility and at the same time responds to the latest trends.
