The challenge was to give a fresh look to this everyday object type as a remote control for electric gates, which was redesigned with new proportions, finishings and functions.
The aim was to create a product which hits the spot and fits in with consumer preferences thanks to its small size, colours and positive tactile feeling.
The aim was to create a product which hits the spot and fits in with consumer preferences thanks to its small size, colours and positive tactile feeling. The product was also designed to be practical thanks to small improvements which make the difference, as the metal or silicone ring used to hang it on keychains.
The design of the remote control from a formal point of view consists of an interface characterised by straight lines framing the buttons which are positioned on the edges to avoid accidental pressing and a back surface which is smooth and rounded to increase manageability and hold.
The new covering of the remote control encloses electronic parts and comes with less separate sections to create a lightweight, pocket-size and practical product which shows a great attention to details. The shape of the remote control is slightly curved to suggest users where to direct it. Other features also show care for details as a smaller LED light and the polished plastic coating in a white and a black lacquered version.
