This project was an exercise in expanding a company's existing product line. Based on research of the Adidas brand, I chose to design a set of fashionable headphones that could work in both active and casual settings.
Aesthetics & Materials
The design was centred around a sleek, modern look, taking inspiration from high-performing materials and Adidas' brand colours. I modelled my design using SolidWorks and chose "perfect" materials that suited sports use cases.
Polycarbonate & carbon fibre are tough, durable materials, perfect for taking a couple of hits.
Silicon, specifically the foamed variety, provides a comfortable, skin-safe material.
5052 Aluminium is used in cargo ships and containers for liquid due to its excellent corrosion resistance against water and salt.
Fused Yarn (Primeknit) is a manufacturing method used by Adidas to reduce the number of separate parts that go into making their shoes. The material, fused yarn, is widely used in the industry.
Renderings for this project were done using Keyshot, Adobe Illustrator & Adobe Photoshop.
