Product Development Design Studio 1 // 2022
Inspired by Charles Eames' philosophy that recognizing the need is key to design, I believe identifying the problem is the first step toward successful solutions. In Nordic countries, self-employed individuals struggle with work-life balance, particularly during winter’s lack of natural light. Helios is a lamp designed to address this challenge, promoting well-being and productivity by improving light conditions, helping users achieve a healthier balance between work and personal life.
The first step of the project has been to identify a potential User Scenario that could lead to innovation
Interviews with potential Users helped us to better define User's needs and context.
