Form and Graphics Projects

Brief:

The brief was to redesign the form of an existing product keeping in mind the environment it is being used in.

Final form 

I find the equipment and décor in a hospital or clinic very functional . This could be because that is a space for healing people and that takes more precedence over anything else. Whenever I visit a clinic or a hospital, I am struck by how soul-less these equipment are. Therefore, I chose to create a different form for the weighing machine. While creating the form, I wanted the user to feel that the product also cared for them. I have taken a child standing on his father’s feet as inspiration. To me , it evokes pleasant childhood memories of love, nurturing and enjoyment. So I have designed the form in a similar fashion. The user would have to hold the product by its shoulders to support themselves while weighing themselves.
