Abstract [en]
This report presents a degree of Bachelor, Industrial Design - Product Design at Luleå University of Technology. The project covers a period of ten weeks during the spring semester of 2016. As a company it is important to be able to show their customers what they have to offer. If that option is not available, it is difficult to establish themselves on the market and be as competitive as companies that can show what they can offer. This is a problem that Skellefteå Snickericentral (SSC) face as they feel that they can’t show customers what they can do.The purpose of this project was to create a basic design for a collections that SSC could commercialize to increase the chances of establish themselves on the interior market. The goal was to develop a concept for a high cabinet, a wall cabinet and base cabinet and interior in the form of shelves. The customer group for the collection are schools and kindergartens where the cabinets will be adapted for the kitchen environment. The project has been based on the questions:• How is a cabinet collection for the preferences of different targets?• What makes a product perceived as environmentally friendly?• How is the identity of Skellefteå snikericentral highlighted in a product line?• How are emotions conveyed by a product folder?The project is based on a stage-gate model in which following processes have been worked through; planning, literature, context, analysis, idea- and concept development, detailed design and implementation. The work is based on the theoretical framework that the literature study generated and consist of topics such as sustainable development, product styling, materials science and the Golden Section.The project resulted in a concept of a basic version of the cabinet collection consisting of a high cabinet, a wall cabinet and a base cabinet with drawers and designed for kitchen environments to schools and kindergartens. The collection is stylish with straight shapes and large clear metal handles with revealing attachment. The collection has an associated concept for a product leaflet that has been developed based on the company's graphic manual. The product folder opens the possibility for the SSC to visualize what they have to offer on the market and can lead to an increased customer base of the company.
