CHALLENGE
Creating a hybrid, aesthetically appealing product to enjoy audio anywhere
Creating a hybrid solution that functions as both headphones and neckphones, designed specifically for micromobility, while accommodating all components and maintaining the ideal volume for the product
PROCESS
Iteration to achieve an optimal solution in quality, volume, and appearance
Collaboration between Barner and Lúcid's design teams was key to balancing functional requirements with a distinctive and personal design.
