Frigidaire Professional, 30 Inch Gas Cooktops | Hardware UI-GUI | Product Design

Creation of iconography, product graphics, and machine art. (Acid Etch, Laser Etch, Silkscreen, IMD, Capacitive Touch, Displays) Responsible for creating working standards for badge design, placement, and product CMF.
Major aspects of UI/UX were also established for this family of major appliances. Color standards were created for stainless steel, glass, ceramic glass, grates, overlays, tints, and LEDs. Functionality, Usability Testing, UX Models and Research placed a major role of the final design.

A comprehensive understanding of Industrial Design principles, Design Thinking and Engineering tolerances are incorporated into my projects. Quality control of all files and materials was of utmost importance, with vendors, suppliers, factories, and engineers around the globe.
