Hi Szymon, Good concept.. As a architect, I appreciate this idea.. But I think the most important issue is that the marketing of this new product does not depend on Miele or the consumers, but depends on the architects who may not be able to implement this idea in some (or many) projects. Good luck :)
I also think that this is something not worry about at the moment, dear Hicham.
Hi Hicham, thank you for your comments. I understand your point yet the idea brings forward the new lifestyle (like electric cars with charging points and all infrastructure )and I disagree on the marketing focus. If you can make people want something by building the need (which in deliveries seem to be built already )all you need is a functioning system... developers and owners will follow. What do you think??? All best!
Hi Szymonو As an architect, I can assure you that in many cases we can not have the design as shown in your drawings. There are many considerations that influence the relationship between the kitchen and the corridor, even if we want to do so. so, I would prefer to use the device in my idea in this project. As an interior designer, I can assure you that if I have the opportunity to design an apartment its kitchen is adjoining the corridor, I will definitely use your device ,not mine ;D Well Done :)
First off, Szymon,
CONGRATS to giving me a clear target group and developing from that perspective. Also, not just showing some renderings but mixing it up with hand drawn simple sketches is so efficient to communicate the how-and-why.
You are showing clearly that isolating a target group and a specific use case is a tool to come up with something that goes beyond the obvious, and that's what design is about: imagining (even slightly) alternative realities and looking at the issue from an imagined perspective to come up with innovative approaches. I see what you did here! ;)
And so you came up with the key asset of your design: It has nothing whatsoever to do with the apartment entrance anymore, it's the other side of the fridge! Duh! The fridge is Narnia, y'all, the Narnia of shopping, the supermarket is literally behind the wall of my freezer if I want it to, cheers. Emphasize that a little more I'd say.
What I miss is that the Pain Point slide doesn't show the pain point but the solution: to guide me through your concept, showing the pain point itself would be great. That way I am prepped to see your solution from the right angle and with a good understanding of what you want to fix. The two compartments make so much sense to guarantee privacy! I could see you taking this a little further in terms of illustrating and showcasing, as I mentioned, but concept is pretty solid.
One thing: To access Narnia, do I have to empty my side of the fridge or shift around its contents? Reaching through is something that I can't yet imagine any other way, and that goes against the elegance of this solution a bit.
Thanks for joining! Best, Jana
Hello there,
Really interesting and detailed presentation. I just have one or two questions: I am not sure if I understood completely how that inner door/lock works, I am assuming the goods that are in the fridge prior new order/delivery are separated- I think I understood that part, but how do we access it? won't there be problems like moving existing groceries to open and access the new ones? Also what about groceries that can't be stored in the fridge such as tomatoes (they go bad very quickly) or the groceries that need to be in dry areas?
I like the concept tho, Good Luck
I am wondering the same thing - how how are the new and old deliveries (existing stuff in the fridge) separated? Is there a special "delivery shelf" there where all new stuff is placed and then the customer places that carefully on their private shelves? Looking forward to more clarification from szymonwit on that, in his presentation.
Hi, the fridge is of regular size + the space of the wall to be used for deliveries compartment. The system could work without the separating system for more relaxed people trusting the delivery companies or we need simple locking system to separate food in the fridge from getting in contact with the delivery guy or girl. All best! Szymon
