Solution
Thanks a lot, Sookie!! Appreciate your kind comment a lot!! :)
Good work! I like it too much. Nice design, nice concept! Congratulations!
Many many thanks, Ana! Great you like it and I do my very best... :))
Wow...freu' mich, dass es Dir gefällt! Was hältst Du vom neuesten Update? :))
SPITZE!!! Gefällt mir immer besser und besser :)
Hey szach... working on it... ;) What do you think about the latest improvements? Soon there will be a detailed explanation how it works....
Thanks a lot, szach. Have you already seen the the latest updates (additional images) on the operating mode? ;) Would love to hear your thoughts....
Some critique feedback Eric.. While I can see the slides and the parts.. I am a little confused as to how it all works.. At what point do the gates open and how do the bean to go to each level. Is it manual or automatic? Does the whole upper units move upwards to allow the material to pass through. The second feedback would be .. would the rotating arms be in the way of the green beans falling into the roasting unit.. Just questions mostly , which I think u can explain more in your slides.. :))
Great feedback and questions here, szach! The opening of the gates is controlled by the electronics and is depending on the roasting level you select on front.
The bowls don't move at all.... only the gates move up and down... independently because of different diameters. The beans will slide from one level to another (as soon as the gates open) since each bowl has a shape of a funnel and therefore no additional help is needed to ensure the beans to slide down.
To your second feedback: The briefing say "What they fill in, will always be used completely." This means, the first gate with the arms (to open the bowl with the raw beans) will stay as long opened as the beans are roasted since all raw beans in the bowl will be used for roasting (according to the briefing). This reduces this part to only one... instead of two parts (as you mentioned).
Thanks a lot for your great feedback and hope I could explain my idea to your satisfaction? ;))
really elegant solution and cool idea of a shape! What will be the roasting and grinding process organization inside the machine? Very promising start really!
Hi Evgeni... many many thanks for your kind comment! :) Working on each aspect and soon I'll present the functionality... I worked hard last night and think I got a quite good solution ;) Soon, I'll show them.... but first I wanted to show an update. What about this one?
Hey Evgeni, Harleking, I did a big update and a detailed description on the operating mode... do these information help to understand the system? ;)
Absolutely beautiful! What are the 3 buttons for? Where's the water inlet, where do you fill in the beans, where do you take out the coffee filter, how do you make the water filter detachable... so many questions, can't wait to see your updates! One more thing: it's not a single serve machine, you usually make more than one cup, but a WHOLE JUG of coffee - so show us your most beautiful wooden jug ;)
Hi Nathalie... this was a first step. I agree ... 3 buttons are not needed since we are not talking about espresso but regular coffee. So I reduced them to one button. Select the roasting level by turning the button and push it to start. Th enext steps will be explaining how it works and I'll even answer all your questions... but many thanks for your support and helpful hints. Best... and stay tuned for the next updates ;)
Hey Nathalie.... I did a major update and added a detailed description about the operating mode... Hope this explains how the whole process / machine is working? Curious to read your comments.... ;)
Great updates! Yes, it much better explains the process. There are still a lot of things to find a solution for (detachable water filter, air filter, where to take out the coffee filter, how to simplify dosing, how to simplify cleaning and and and, but we're still early in the contest. And btw - I personally liked the first view of the machine materials better - looked more like wood, hence a bit classier... that's just IMO though. Keep going, curious to see more!
Thanks for your pointing out the open questions, Nathalie! Still working on them and I'll soon deliver some answers to some of them ;) But as I compare my submission to others here... I may say that mine at least has a working process ;) Regarding the materials.... I think there are a lot of possibilities to change or adjust them... I used the current ones to point out the different stages of the whole process.... but let's see ;)
I like very much you use different colors or textures to distinguish the processes! Very nice! Go on!
Thank you very much for your nice comment, Johnny! Happy you like my approach and my design. Already did an update ... looking forward to hear your suggestions! :)
Wow... was für ein Kompliment, Ramona!!! Freue mich riesig darüber und natürlich auch darüber, dass Dir die Idee sooo sehr gefällt! Hast Du schon mein neuestes Update gesehen? ;)
Das update ist auch schick, aber die Holz-Variante spricht mich mehr an. Die hat so was "natürliches" ;)
Dank Dir, Ramona! Bin noch am Überlegen, ob ich den Bereich für die rohe Kaffeebohnen doch in Holz gestalte.... der spannende Teil aber (der, in dem die Bohnen geröstet werden) sollte aber aus Glas bestehen, denn das ist ja genau das Interessante an dem Prinzip dieser neuen Maschine. Naja... ich werde weiter tüfteln ;) Mehr demnächst ... :))
Thanks a lot, Harleking... very happy you like it! :)) Did an update... hope you still like it? ;)
i liked the wood style, but the transparent areas for the bones are great, so i like it too. my idea i had in my mind, was to make the brown area without satin and with a dark brown wood texture. just an idea :)
Thanks for your suggestion, Harleking! Appreciate it very much! :) I'm still working on it and checking which combination isbest... so, I'll also try your suggestion and see how this looks alike.... but first of all I think, I got to work on the functions to ensure everyone understands how it works ;)
Harleking, I did a big update and a detailed description on the operating mode. Hope you like it? ;)
Wow, the operating guide is great. Like it very much, well done ;)
Thanks, Harleking... it was some pretty hard work to figure it out but finally.... it's done ;) Appreciate your comment a lot! THX!
Hi! I like very much your 1st 3D. Maybe if you want to see the coffee beans you can make a "little window" in the wood. I think your first machine has more presence, is visually stronger. Keep up the good work. :)
Great feedback, Ana! I thought about a "little window" but I think imho it would disturb the clean view of each segment.... but maybe I'll try some variations ;) Maybe the first one is stronger but it lacks of a defined space for water and the grinder... well, let#s see if I can find a compromise ;)
Keep waiting for new updates! It's a really nice work.
Ok... the updates are here... including a detailed description for the operating mode. Curious to read your comments... ;)
Wow... thanks sooo much for your comment and your vote, Davide!! I'm really happy you love it... what a compliment! :))
You're awesome, Xavier! blush So happy you love the idea and - as you may imagine - I like your comment a lot :))) THX!!!
How do you integrate our water tank and how is the coffee can gonna look like? Excited to see more!
Thanks for your questions, artmannf! Appreciate them a lot! The watertank is on top (transparent bowl) and can be filled for each usage. I'll show the complete functions in the upcoming images (currently rendering).. The coffee can will look just like the mugs but a bit broader... stay tuned... I'll show it soon ;) Thanks again for your comment and the fact you love the idea!!!! :)))
Thanks a lot, vlado! And many thanks for loving my idea!!! Appreciate that very much! :)
Many thanks for loving the idea and your kind comment, Sasha!!! Appreciate it - as you may imagine - very much!! :))
Oh, greate update, now it looks much closer to briefing in terms of functionality, super job!
Wow... thanks so much, Evgeni! Thanks even for loving my idea... really happy about it!! :))
Thanks a bunch, Sookie83!! I'm really happy you love my idea... and I'm still working on it and improving it... stay tuned ;)
Thanks so much, Architempo!! I'm doing my very best and still working on it... soon I'll show some improvements ... stay tuned! :)))
Thanks soooo much, ionut! Very happy you love my idea!!!!
THAAAAANNNKKKSSSS, Xavier! :)) I'm really so happy you like my latest updates!!!
Wow, a lot of work, great idea InDezign! One of the first to show how this machine is really going to work like as well!! May I suggest a tiny tiny tiny little thing? I'm actually in love with the wooden materials on your first image - why did you decide to not use wood anymore? Or what's your material now? I felt like the first one looked even a little classier... Anyways, very curious to see more!
Thank you so much for your kind feedback, Nathalie!! Appreciate it a lot! First of all I want to say that I used simple colors in the description to ensure a fast rendering.... I think for describing the functionality simple colors should be fine. For the current first slide - this was just a way to show where each part is located (e.g. where are raw beans, where are the roasted beans etc.) I also like the wooden one in my first slide the most and therefore I'll add some images which will use the look and feel of the orginal image and transport it into the new design.... stay tune, it'll follow soon ;)
Here we go! I did an update on the idea and not only added the wooden look (again) but also expained and showed how the filter is working and the coffee can... ;)
Hope you like it?? ;)
Oh yes! It's beautiful! Did you check the dimensions in the 3d data and adapt your design to it? Keep going!
Hi Nathalie, I proudly present... the latest version of my idea. Now with integration of the given engine, an air venting outlet to the back, a watertank which can be removed to the side, a silver chaff drawer and and and... Hope you like it? ;)
Würde vielleicht auch zur ersten Optik zurückkehren und da weiter machen. Gefällt mir außerordentlich und nimmt praktischer Weise wenig Platz weg, was ich immer sehr wichtig finde. Eyecandy!
Danke Dir, Sibylle! Das werde ich auch.... ich wollte halt nur zunächst zeigen, wo welche Teile wie eingesetzt werden. Jetzt sind die nächsten Schritte, das Design noch optisch aufzupeppen und ein paar "marginal Kleinigkeiten" herauszuarbeiten ;) Freue mich natürlich, dass Du meine Idee liebst ... :)))
Hey Sibylle! Hab' den allgemeinen Ratschlag angenommen und die neue Grafiken erstellt... samt Erläuterung des Filters und der Kaffee Kanne. Na, was hältst Du davon? ;)
Yeah cracking update Sir! I really like it. I also love the cup styling. Retro as!
Thanks sooo much, Lee!! :))) Really great to know, your loving the idea!! Doing my very best and did another update to show some additional aspects.
blush Thanks again for loving it, Ana!! Appreciate your comment and your vote a lot! :))
Thanks so much, MariaLuisa!! Apprciate your comment and your love a lot!! :)
Wow... thanks, Wasaki!! Happy you love it and many thanks even for your comment! :))
Thanks soooo much, yuzna!!! Appreciate your comment and your love for my idea!!! :))))
Runde Sache! ;D Obwohl das Design bei mir ein paar Fragen aufwirft....in punkto Wassertank und Röstkammer.
Damke Dir, sidata. Warum, wo siehst Du da das Problem? Die Hitze kann's m. E. nicht sein, denn dazwischen ist ja die Kammer für die rohen Bohnen.... Bin gespannt, was ich evtl. übersehen habe... ;)
Das mein ich ja...... warum ne extra Kammer für die rohen Bohnen?
Außerdem geht es ja nur um die äußerliche Erscheinung der Maschine...die "Innereien" sind doch eigentlich schon fertig. Aber du machst das schon! ;)
this is a great idea, Eric!! very nice, still a little tight to the mechanism components I think ...anyway, I like it! waiting for your last updates :)
Well, Gus, at first man thanks for your comment. I tried to find a solution which is actually a bit different from the given 3d data for the mechanism.... since the 3D data were provided long after I created the idea. I'm currently working on another solution to integrate the given mechanism.... but this will be a new submission ;)
I love your idea and your rendering! I'm not sure about the surface materials... What do you think about a flat light color? (I'm thinking about the Pantone accessories). It could give a good contrast with the dark nature of coffee. Cheers!
Thanks so much for your great suggestion, Alice!! I was actually already working on some flat light colors but on one hand these don't really fit to the mood board Bonaverde offered in their downloads and on the other hand most of the comments wanted the original idea of a wooden structure back. But maybe I'll give it another try? ;)
Hello InDezign,
Thank you for you compact and serious draft. There are some points which we want keep from you :
Please focus that there is a possibility to remove the water tank sidewards.
Please do not use too much wood, which will cause problems in the further technical implementation.
Also keep in mind that the inlet and outlet of the air vent system is located at the back of the machine.
Please keep mainly an eye on the design not at the technology in it. Bring in our technical specifications, which you can find at the briefing.
Best Regards
Dear Jergus,
first, this is really some very helpful feedback! Thanks a bunch!
I'll think about each of your points and will soon show an updated version. Just one thing: The wooden bowls for each step are jut some example textures and may even be some artificial wood. Anyway... maybe it would be better to get back to the non-wood-variation... ;)
Thanks again and best, InDezign
Hi Jergus,
I did an update and added the functionality to remove the water tank to the front (may also be removed to the side). I also made a version with non-wooden textures but I still think it would be great if it was either real wood or some sort of a wood-imitation.
Anyway... I will also create a version with the tank to remove to the side and I will also show the outlet of the venting system in my next update (coming soon!). ;)
Best, Eric
Hi Jergus,
now I hope that's what you wanted? ;)
The latest version not only has a watertank attached to the side, but also shows the usage of the silver chaff drawer. It also shows in detail how your given engine is integrated into my housing (pls see also my video). Finally even the air filter/air venting system is integrated and located at the back of the machine.
Hope you like the latest version and best, Eric
Thanks a lot, rage3vil! I'm so happy you love the idea!!! Many thanks!
Thanks a bunch, AKAntartzis! I did the changes and really hope the latest updates... I even showed 2 different versions - one with wooden textures and one with earth tone colors. Would like to hear your comments... ;)
Ww... what a pleasure to read this from you, Peter!! Really appreciate your comment and your love!!! :))
Thanks sooo much, torovsky!! Very happy about your love for the idea and I'm even happy you like it this much!! :))
blush thank you soo much, sschwarzkopf!! :)) This is great to hear and I'm pretty sure it will work... ;) Thanks a lot even for the love!!! :)
Hope it's work for Bonaverde too, cuz you have a great pice of design my friend!!
Thaaanks soooo much, additio!! :)) Appeciate your comment a lot since I appreciate also your work a lot! Well, let's see if this fits for Bonaverde.... let's keep our fingers crossed ;))
Wow.... I'm so happy CVAG!! Thanks sooo much for your kind comment and especially for loving the idea!! :))
UPDATE!!! Now including - integration of the engine, - integration of a chaff drawer, - watertank (can be removed to the side) - -air venting system (to the back) and... a beautiful look ;)
Would love to hear your comments!! :DD
I like the shape proposed therefore I will give you a very good rating. Altough I`m wondering if the interior pieces have the dimensions given in the briefing.
Thanks, novatos! I didn't change the dimensions of the given engine ... so it should fit. ;)
Oh...btw... many many thanks for your love on my idea!!! Appreciate it very much ;)
Thanks a lot, Amsquared! Appreciate not only your kind comment but also you love for the idea... many thanks!!!
Wow... so happy, Alab!!! Very happy about your love and many thanks for your comment!!
Wow... this is sooo kind by you, Eva!! Very happy about your comment and even about your love!!! Thanks so much! :))
Thanks so much, Anshulspcl! Very happy about your comment and your love!!! :)))
Thanks a bunch, Dvishalg!! I did my very best and I really appreciate your comment and your love for the idea!!! THX!! :))
Wow... I'm really happy, you love the idea this much!!! Thanks a bunch for your comment and your vote!!!
i like the color scheme, the uplifting round form and the rotating elements at the top.
very good concept!
Wow, Filip.... many thanks for your comment and your hearts for the idea!!! Appreciate it really a lot!! :))
Many thanks for loving the idea, Geirrodur! Appreciate your vote and your comment a lot!!
I like it. That's too many grean beans, though. Wouldn't even fit in the roasting unit. :P
Thanks a lot for your kind comment, oxelot! To reduce the size of the grean bean bowl shouldn't be that complex ;) Anyway... finally it's all depending on the size of the roasting unit and how much beans it accepts ;)
For us this is very inspiring project, the design of the shape together with the use of earth/wood colors makes your coffee a elegant and cleaver machine, plus the textures that you used give a sophisticated touch, however this doesn't mean that cant be carried anywhere, because at the same time create a fresh atmosphere in relation with the coffee sensation that the costumer can enjoy. We review the whole project and we have wanted to work in this coffee design with you, because we discover a smart and unique way to develop a project like this, make us think several ideas of portability, size choice, and maybe some accessories to offer together with your Bonaverde coffee machine. Congrats InDezign, we really like this work that you've done here!
Wow... I'm really impressed because of your comment and your vote on my idea!!! blushed I also like your work a lot and it would've been great to work together with you on this idea - but unfortunately, this contest is nearly over. So, maybe we can team up on a future contest... let's wait and see, ok? ;) Anyway... I many thanks for your kind words and your hearts fo the idea!! I appreciate them a lot!! :))
Many many thanks for your kind words, Lorenz! Appreciate them very much and thanks a bunch for your love for this idea!!! :)))
Thanks sooo much, Vanjolina!! I'm really hgappy and appreciate not only your latest comment ;) but also your love for my idea!!! :)))
Wow... sooo happy you also like my idea, Sam! You know, I appreciate your work a lot and therefore I'm absolutely happy about your love!! Thanks a bunch!! :))
Xavier.... thank you soooo much!!! Absolutely happy you love the idea and maaaaannnnyyyy thanks !!! :)))
