From sketch to manufacturable phone mount

Hardware product development for a premium, personalised phone mount: a business gift that is useful enough that people keep it around.

Problem

Most business gifts end up in a drawer. The goal of this project is the opposite: a truly personalised business gift that adds so much value in daily use that people want to keep it around. That calls for a product with a premium feel, which can still be produced reliably and affordably.

Approach

Mechanical design, fast iterations with 3D-printed prototypes, and design-for-manufacturing reviews, with the premium look and feel as a requirement from the first sketch.

Where it stands

Work in progress: the prototypes are being tested and refined towards a design that is ready for production.
