Konceptutveckling av luftutblås
This Master?s Thesis work was performed at the Studio Engineer department at Volvo CarsDesign Centre in Gothenburg, Sweden. The assignment has been to create a new idea of an airvent where the news value mainly was focused at functionality but also with great attention onvisual appearance.The work has been totally independent and not been aimed to any specific car model. Theindependency initially made that the visual appearance primary wasn?t limited in any way dueto surrounding components. The independency made that the way of working followed ageneral design development process.The developing process has been done in different stages with following selection rounds.Primarily a lot of information about demands and limitations was collected concurrently withperforming a world wide analysis of existing solutions. From the initial creation of a lot ofpossible proposals for solutions, at the end via a number of iteration rounds, two prototypeshave been produced and evaluated regarding function and appearance.
