WorkS

The big city transport usually is very crowdet, so thats way people star using more and more the bicycle as a fast, autonomic, economic and ecologic way of transport. The biggest problem arrives when you stop using it. We don´tknow what to do with our bicycle when we go in a shop, at the undergound, when we want to carry it with us, or park it (afraid of it being stolen). Thats why this project raises the design of a fold bicycle for the EASD School. This bicycle can be fold easily by the pedal shaft (with only one movement)and in a confortable way (without haveing to make streght or weighing it).

It’s very practicle at use and no use, due to the fact that you can transport it as a suitcase, thanks to the hang of the saddle.It is a design foccused for EASD

go-ongo-on

students and teachers, so its conceptualization takes on account its public. Thats why it has the concept of: Young (vitality), student (illusion), design (improvement), EASD (motivation), Valencia (immediate, fast), They are recapted in the concept “GO-ON“ because that’s what the schoool looks for, looking foward, innovating and improving.

The EASD brand is appli in important aspects of the bycicle with the folding system and the concept “GO-ON”. The form of the brand it’s also applicated at the bycicle (easy and depured) and the use of the object (insctinctive, folding, easy and confortable)

To end up, its sizes let us introduce it at the locker of EASD, giving more security to the user.

The company “Lantero embalaje” of the group “SICE”, is a manufacturer of recycled cardboard company, that needed to innovate the design of a premium packaging for the sale of valencian oranges at the united kindoom supermarkets.

Star-Pack is the perfect packaging for the best oranges, the valencian oranges horchad. This recycled cardboard folding i t ’s easy to manufacture (a simetr ic template very simpl i f ied) and an easy doing ( in only 3 movements), I t ’s very atract ive in what the sale is refered on an estandard supermarket due to i ts nice looking.

star-pack

Permits a safe transport because it manteins each orange in a individual place.Also i ts transport since the supermarket to home is very confortable, because the weight destr ibui tes i tsel f in the stucture.

When it´s emptied you can give i t a second use, i t ’s the perfect organizer for home elements ( l ike penci ls, socks, etc.) extending i ts useful l i fe.

Pets are a nice company for many famil ies nowadays, but i f they aren’t wel l cared they can bring many infect ions for the pet and also to the family. By this is very important i ts worming, because if i t is i tchy, you scratch.

But there are problems with the worming because they are very harmful for the human skin, and they need useing gloves for i ts appl icat ion, or some of them fr ighten pets ( l ike sprays). That ’s why we want to create a new container. Guau! is a new packaging with rol l -on dispenser, with a f lea l iquid by the wel l known brand Front l ine.

Rol l -on is a innovat ive dispenser to the sector and it is in charge of deworm the pet which wil l be very confortable because is very easy to use.

guau !

I ts shape is very ergonomic and throws better the l iquid, and with the correct quant i ty, and avoids the skin contact.

The colors are accord with the company ones and advert ise that i ts content is prohibi ted for humans. About design we can see it in i ts shape that symbol ize the form of a dog with an Isanel ino´s necklace (wich is used to avoid that the dog scratches i tsel f) .

I ts name symbol ize the onomatopeia that the dog does when it barks, “Guau!”, and also to the onomatopeia of surpr ise ( l ike woow!).The union of design, ergonomity, and protect ion makes this product very interest ing for the sector, because there aren’t a lot of design examples in i t .

Do you need a hug?This project raises the design of a chair that f i ts to the Valencian Andreu Wolrd f i losophy. Thats why its manufactured in beech wood, through the wood bent, which Andreu World is an especial ist .

The estet ic also cont inues with the company’s f i losophy, with i ts soft and elegant forms, the use of beech wood with good qual i t ies f inishes.This design rests on the “emotional design” to apport a summation of the product ’s value.

abbr -accio

I t ’s supported on the hug’s feel ing and from this idea the name of “ABBRACCIO”. I t ’s shape seems as i f the two front legs hug you whe you seat down”.

Throught the hug symbol i t is tryed to express, confortabi l i ty, protect ion and qual i ty that def ines i t , trying to create an affect ion of the user with the chair .

A reasonable quant i ty of l ight ing sorround us on our day a day, but a very interesant fact is that al l of them are hanged on the ceel ing, wal l or to an energy source, and they do not apport f lexibi l i ty in their use.

CUÉLGAME (HANG ME) is a very useful inalambric lamp that can be hanged wherever l ight is needed, I t ’s simply form express intui t ively i t´s use, from where is hanged and from where i t´s i luminated.

Due to the fact that i t ’s shape is a simpl i f ied union between the si lhouettes of a lamp and a hanger.

cuel-game

This iconic form searches for a easy understanding.

Thanks to i t ’s l ight battery that feeds the LED bulbs, i t doesn’t weigh very much, and the lamp can be used and hanged wherever you want.

In addit ion i ts shape permits placing i t in the inside of wardrobe to end up with the problem of the lack of l ight.

Also you can use it to as a hanger to emphasise a piece of cloth.

“Footbal l i t ’s also that way” is an expository project that invest igates how footbal l inspired the design, directed by the En Blanc studio.Through raff le is establ ished the si tuat ion (scenary and moment) to the development of a project, that can be selected ( i t is the case) to be exposed in the exposit ion of the MuVIM inaugurated on June 2011.

The scenary is “The pub with fr iends”, and the moment “The end of the match, we’ve lost” . The fans, on front of a defeat can show anger, disappointment and sadness feel ings, because their team hasn’t arr ived to their object ive, winning the Eurocope.

tochopolvos

Taking into account the scene, i t appears the problem of how to show their feel ings and being able to not keeping them themselves. Look for an excuse to end up with the feel ings and make sure that nobody wil l see him crying for a game.

The “TOCHOPOLVOS” sweets (That coloquialy means someone who is very”depressed”) are the perfect excuse so that the rest of the people do not know that you are crying because of the defeat. Because they are so spicy that i f you aren’t crying they’ l l make you cry.

Glasses levitating by quantum lock.

Nowadays the Point of sale display, is something not very developed by the Optics shops, That ’s why glasses were choosed as a object to emphasize.

I t was found the need of cal l ing the atent ion of the consumer, thanks to the visual impact, making them interact and highl ight ing the product relevance.

POS DISPLAY is based on act ion, when someone sees a mirror they inst inct ively watch themselves in i t .

That ’s way when a person walks to an opt ic he f inds a wal l ful l of mirrors that distort the shape in which i t says “don’t you look

optics pOS display

alr ight?“, this makes you think about your vision’s qual i ty and propose yourself i f you are in a need of glasses.

Going forward, this person f inds framed mirrors, with a st icker of the shape of one of the type of glasses that you can f ind inside.

When this person see itsel f , he’s wearing the glasses and can try al l of them looking at the mirrors. This way we can make the front ier of having to enter the shop dissapear. In addit ion is very unconfortable making them go to the next mirror, coming back for the next model, etc.
