DBOX5, from an industrial box to a triple-impact design
CHALLENGE
CHALLENGE
Conceptualize a design that fully realizes the DBOX5's potential
DBOX5 is a solar panel controller defined by its efficiency, durability and resilience. A new concept that represents the latest evolution of the product line of PVH Hardware, an international leader in solar energy solutions. This project integrates engineering, sustainability and design challenges with a clear mission: to improve all product attributes through design.
PROCESS
We merge aesthetics with circular design principles to develop a product with triple-fold impact
The design and engineering process was defined by several key challenges: ensuring robustness for maximum weather resistance, simplifying assembly for operators and electronics to cut down on assembly, disassembly, and repair time, minimizing the product's environmental footprint through recyclable and recycled components, and crafting a design that fully unleashes the product's potential.
RESULT
Reduced environmental footprint. Increased power and efficiency and, extensive emphasis on design
The DBOX5 features a sleek, compact design that not only enhances product aesthetics and improves the user experience, but also reduces its carbon footprint by 18%. This project transformed an industrial box into a compact, customized unit with a recognizable CMF that stays true to the brand's identity.
