Maverick Concepts

The Story

This material is produced by Maverick Concepts from their Artizin line of products. This material is made entirely from recycled plastic and is know as ArtFelt.

Ideation: Concept Development

At Maverick, they tasked us with create potential products for them to further develop and possibly produce in their next Artizin product line.

My initial concepts were centered around modularity and desk utilization.

Further Development

Taking these two ideas, I combined and further developed the potential of having modular options for storing things both efficiently, and while giving options to the user

Base Design Feature

The development of this product started with this patterned design feature. These crosses allow for a sturdy and modular ability to join and mount pieces together in a way that is impermanent.

Interaction Points

This interaction point was the chosen direction because it can be made by one piece that is folded, and it provides significant support while also maintaining a sleek visual appearance.

Modularity

Having these features put in place, there are many unique attachments that vary both in sizes and in purpose. Additionally, the back plate can be either mounted to the wall or created in a separate entity.
