We intented to help consumers better understand and control the ripening process and help preserve their fruits a few days longer. We created a simple bowl equipped with a discret filter using noble materials and classic shapes.
Developed in close collaboration with scientific lab at Electrolux R&D.

Wild pinch

We have all played with clothes pins as kids, this inspired a toy collection where pins finally become the animals we once imagined!
The toys consist of a series of WWF endangered
species, raising awareness towards our
precious kingdom of animals with whom
we coexist and share earth.

Concrete Speaker

A speaker that corresponds better with it´s surroundings. Something that echoes the type of shapes and materials in its surroundings. Instead of something technical we made it poetic, light and beautiful.

No tools needed.

Mont blanc has created the most user-friendly car rack and roof box ever. No tools needed, no unnecessary hassle, no frustation.
Mount them, secure them with a simple pull, GO!

rugged, accurate, versatile.

After a thorough user centered survey we reinvented Trimble´s identity. We defined a design DNA which differentiate Trimble from its competitors, resulting in user centric products that can be tailored to operator’s preferences.

Make it a Scania!

Since June 2010 Scania is one of Playful’s main clients. Scania is a major Swedish automotive industry manufacturer of commercial vehicles with a driver focused mindset.

We want to create connection between Scania brand and the user. These connections are based on rational argument such as functionality, ergonomics and usability. As well as more emotional arguments such as self-improvement, image and desire. These are founding building blocks of a strong, long lasting, relation between the brand and the user.

To care for our garment
is to care for our planet.

Did you know that how we care for our garments accounts for the bulk of their total environmental impact?! The appropriate care for the clothes increases its life span, use less energy, less water and less detergent. During this project care has been the keyword guiding the design into every detail of the product and the user experience. Care for the garments, care for the environment and most importantly care for the user.

NEVER ON PAUSE.

THE SOUND OF SILENCE

The L120 fully electric wheel loader is a totally new experience! Super smooth and silent precision handling. With up to 9 hours of operation on a single charge and a full recharge in 2-hours, this 20-ton electric wheel loader is an amazing work horse.

The project has been carried out in close collaboration with Volvo as part of the design team. Designer; Aydin Mert creative lead; Peter Reuterberg.

Waste as an asset

This urban compost is part of a circular kitchen concept. Conventional microbiological and fungal composting is a sure but long process. This compost speeds up the process significantly with the help of earthworms. Besides from digesting the compost the worms also help aerate and improve the climate in the compost. Developed in collaboration with VHM Designfutures London for Electrolux.

Don’t over salt the fish!

Road salt saves life in traffic, but too much salt is harmful for life in streams and lakes.

Mähler’s intelligent control system spreads the salt more evenly and only exactly where it is needed. This drastically reduces salt consumption and minimises environmental impact.

The aerodynamic design also decreases air turbulence and thereby fuel consumption.
