LET YOUR CHILD LISTEN AND PLAY.

Overview

In this project, my team and I collaborated to research a selected brand, analyzing its history, values, customers, and design language. We prepared a brand research summary and created consumer personas to guide our design process. Together, we selected a current over-ear headphone to study its technical design, which informed our headphone concepts. We then independently developed and refined our headphone designs, considering brand identity and user needs. Finally, we prepared and presented a cohesive concept deck, showcasing our research, divergent ideation, and refined product designs.

Problem

Many parents have a hard time finding headphones that fit their child correctly, frequently causing more stress than relief. Children often face issues around wearing headphones as they are either too tight or loose, weigh too much, or can become distracting.

Goal

Create headphones that won't be disruptive to others but still allow children to fidget. They will also need to be correctly fitted so no noise comes out and they don't add pressure to their sensitive ears.

Brand Research

Building an understanding of Fisher Price.

History

While wood was common, plastic was a logical switch because it allowed a wider range of colors and was much easier to manipulate for new toys.

Design Language

Bright colors, round, bubble-y shaped toys, animals, and educational.

"The exuberant use of colorful graphics and unconventional typography captures the brand attributes of fun, action, play, celebration, silliness, and joy."
