Our primary success criteria is the status of our clients’ bottom line. If the products sells well, we probably did something right in the process. We know that the industrial design is only one part of the chain of development that leads to a market success. But it’s the part that can make or break the whole thing. It is all about showing that you mean it, showing that your product has the quality to beat the competition. The design effort may be only skin deep, but it’s the outer skin of the product that has to communicate the marketing values and technical features that sell it. That is where we come in: At the point of sale. Whether it’s about the consumer’s impulsive shopping decision or the professional’s careful consideration, good design can make the difference between sale and no sale.

DIS infrared receiver

Danish Interpretation Systems, who develops and produces high-end equipment to be used in parliaments and at conferences, asked us to design a new infrared sound receiver as a part of their wide range of products for politicians and business people.

The primary design challenge in the project was to develop a beautiful and cohesive principle for the pocket clips on the front of the unit. This was solved by shaping the clip function as a wide smile that solves the practical and gives the IR-receiver its characteristic look.

DIS 6990P congress unit

This touch screen controlled microphone unit with queue control, vote and agenda facilities is the latest in the line of products Spin Doc Design & Engineering has developed in co-operation with DIS.
We have been in charge of the physical industrial design of the unit as well as the design of the graphic user interface (GUI), while DIS´s own engineers have constructed the unit and their programmers have developed the software behind the GUI. The product has been developed from scratch as a thoroughly new concept and carried through by a working group with great continuity in the staff throughout the single phases of the project. This has resulted in an efficient process and an excellent result, which all involved parts are very happy with.
DC 6990P has recently been installed in the room of the EU-committee in the Danish parlament.

Tone CPH candle holder

The Tweet candle holder is designed to fit into any environment with its minimalist design. Its surfaces reflect the light from the candle and diffuse it softly into the room. The bird-inspired shape invites the user to put several Tweets together to form a little flock of shining metal birds.
Apart from creating the design of the candle holder, we also designed its packaging and took care of finding and having the dialogue with a Chinese manufacturer of both metal parts and packaging.

DIS 6070 conference unit

This microphone unit with speaker and language selection facilities is the basic building block of DIS’ flexible conferencing systems, installed as permanent or temporary communication solutions for parliaments and conference centers all over the world.
We have taken a no-nonsense minimalistic approach to the design in order to aim the expression directly at the target group of politicians and business people. This unit is designed to be an unobtrusive high quality tool which falls naturally into the formal environment it is meant for.
In parallel with finishing the industrial design for this unit, our engineers have developed the mechanical construction for the various plastic and metal shells that make up the unit.

Amokka caffé latte spoon

An extra long caffé latte spoon in chromed and sandblasted steel. We’ve used Amokka’s logo of the dancing coffee-woman to break the basic clean shape of the spoon in order to tie the spoon together with the rest of the company’s range of coffee accessories.
Amokka placed all responsibilities for the development process at Spin Doc Design & Engineering - including the handling of the production at a Chinese subcontractor.

Jakobsson Menlo ceiling luminaires

In a joint project with the Thorn & Jakobsson R&D department we have designed this series of fluorescent ceiling luminaires for 600 x 600 mm system ceilings.
The project was a parallel cost reduction and redesign progress, where Thorn & Jacobsson in Denmark and England handled technical optimization for production, while we were in charge of concept generation and design.

Habo coat hanger

Modular coat hanger based on a single extruded aluminium profile which can be combined in a number of different configurations. The design is based on a simple geometry of straight lines and semicircular curves, giving it a no-nonsense, timeless expression. The basis profile is carried by a simple piece of natural wood or painted MDF. Simple as it may seem, finding a manufacturer who can extrude the aluminium profile with its significant variations in material thickness has been no easy task – but by combining our network with that of the client, we succeeded in finding the right subcontractor.
