Industrial Design for Plastic Housing for Electronic Consumer Product

Posted 4 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

We are seeking an experienced industrial designer to adjust and refine the plastic housing for a consumer electronic product. The project involves designing a functional and aesthetically pleasing housing that meets the product requirements. The product features a limited number of elastomeric buttons and custom display. There is one circuit boardThe ideal candidate should have a strong background in industrial design and experience working with plastic materials. The project is expected to take approximately 1 to 3 months to complete. We already have a strong design direction and 3D concept. At this stage, we are looking for someone who can translate and refine that concept into a clean, professional 3D model in SOLIDWORKS, with good proportions, detailing, and practical product-design thinking. The first goal is to refine the external housing design until we are satisfied with the look and overall form. After that, I would ideally like to continue with the same person, or someone with similar expertise, to prepare the design for prototyping and eventually for production tooling/mold development. This is primarily an indoor product that is wall mounted. It does not necessarily need to be waterproof, but the design should still be practical, well-constructed, and suitable for eventual manufacturing. The stated budget is first phase of the project, and may be adjusted according to talent and suitability for this project. Thank you
