Bench / Product design & prototyping

Useful objects.
Made real.

We develop everyday products from the first sketch through physical prototypes and a clear design handover.

The studio

See the idea. Hold a model. Decide what to change.

We help teams make the decisions between an interesting idea and a product that is ready for further development. That means looking at how it is used, how it feels in the hand and how its parts fit together.

Explore the object

Turn it over.
See how it comes together.

A form and assembly study of Arc. Rotate the object, compare finish directions or separate the main components.

ARC / FORM STUDY

The head, bent support and base form a continuous outline.

Selected work

A small light with a clear purpose.

Arc brings its base, support and head into one simple silhouette. The project explores light placement, a reachable control and a compact footprint.

How we help

From a rough idea
to the next useful version.

Define the product

We turn an initial idea into a usable brief: who it is for, what it needs to do and which decisions the first prototype should answer.

Explore the form

Sketches and digital studies compare proportions, grip, controls and the way separate parts meet.

Make and learn

Physical models bring scale, reach and assembly into the conversation. We record what changed and why.

Prepare the handover

The selected direction becomes an organized design package for the next engineering or manufacturing conversation.

Selected work

An object that belongs wherever you put it.

Field pairs a fabric front with a protective outer shell and an obvious place to pick it up. We studied its controls and the small details you notice every day.

Explore Field

Material decisions

The surface is only
part of the story.

Metal

Edges, weight and finishes are considered together with how separate parts attach.

Polymer

Early studies look at wall sections, joints and the relationship between a shell and its internal components.

Textile

Touch, seams and the transition to a harder surface influence the whole object.

How we approach materials

The working table

Test an idea you can hold.

A physical model gives a team a shared reference. It can reveal an awkward grip or a control that looked right on screen but feels misplaced in use.

What a prototype can answer

Moving forward

Good decisions should
travel with the design.

We bring the chosen direction, key dimensions, material intent and open questions into a readable package. Your next partner can see the reasoning as well as the result.

Development & handover

Before we begin

You don’t need
a perfect brief.

Can you start with a sketch?

Yes. A sketch, a description or an existing product can begin the conversation. We first agree what the project needs to achieve and which decisions need attention.

Do you work on part of a project?

Yes. We can focus on a form study, a prototype or a development package when the wider project already has a clear direction.

What should we bring?

A short description of the intended use, the current stage and the decision you want to make next. Our project guide explains the rest.

Starting well

Tell us what you want to make.

A useful first conversation starts with the product and the people who will use it. Bring the uncertainties too; identifying them is part of the work.
