These concepts were created for Dahlinger GmbH. They are based on concepts I designed for earlier client work and completely new designs.
All designs are made from a mix of veneered/lacquered MDF and rPET suede.
Brutalist display
The 'Brutalist' jewelry display features curved metal frames on which suede jewelry platforms rest.
They hover above a pebble field that fills the base plates. The rough stone creates a counterpoint to the soft elements above, creating a seemingly floating design in perpetual tension.
qr code display
The 'QR' code display is a design exploration that allows the display to act as the ice breaker for a mobile experience.
The QR code itself is shifted by 45 degrees and becomes a 3D sculptural element which informs the rest of the design.
The product, a beauty cream, is presented on multiple levels to allow for a high number of products in a small area.
(This example QR code leads to the Dahlinger homepage)
Foldable Display
The goal of this design is unique flexibility with a simple construction: Metal hinges connect the backwall and baseplate, allowing the display to be folded inwards to create a platform.
The images and suede inserts can be removed and turned 90 degrees. This allows for the display to act as an image wall. Alongside added ease of transportation, this vintage inspired design surprises with its flexibility.
A dark version sees steel hinges pierce through the black wood & suede surroundings:
ACCENT JEWELRY Display
The 'Accent' jewelry display pairs simple geometry with colourful highlights. A material mix of lacquered and suede MDF provides contrast and visual interest.
The sky blue suede connects thematically with the backplate image, and frames the upper baseplate.
An attention grabber that is as simple to manufacture as it is striking.
thoughts
The project allowed me to showcase flexible design solutions that adhere to the strict manufacturing constraints of displays. All of these displays are designed to stand out from the crowd, be it through colour, shape, usability or function.
