With the way life & technology is now, people can be too busy at work or preoccupied with other important activities & need to focus on spending time & energy very thoughtfully. With people always on the go, no one would want to waste time & energy on waiting for anything to be delivered. And with the way cities are growing rapidly, any storage solution needs to be compact, practical and secure.
Target groups
Other (People on the go, ages 20-40. Practically any age group when used for bigger applications like schools, hotels, resorts, retirement centers & hospitals.)Observation
Conclusion
We need a storage space for deliveries that is time, space, & energy efficient, convenient, secure, preferrably automated, online, compact, and even multi- purpose. Portability would be a great plus.
Solution
The beautifully compact, streamlined, minimalist design facilitates modularity, flexibility & ease of maintenance as well as portability. Used as a trolley (or even w the backpack dock) it can be brought anywhere. Small enough as overhead & w a folding middle shelf & extended cover lock w/c doubles as a hook for bags, it's as useful & flexible as luggage. OR LEAVE IT on the LOCKING, charging dock. Secure, programmable & worry-free with its own app, it's a time, space & energy efficient solution
Pain Point
FOOD&MEDICINE delivery can require a lot of care & attention. SPACE, PRIVACY & SECURITY can be difficult to attain in urban living. TIME has become so valuable that people rarely have the ability to wait for packages. We need a CONVENIENT, SECURE, COMPACT & MODULAR SOLUTION that ensures freshness.
Product in its environment
The BOX can be attached as a single unit directly on a door using a charging dock. Several units can be grouped together on a wall for bigger spaces like condos,hotels & hospitals. Pairs can use the back-to-back dock that is cantilevered or fixed onto a counter or even as a freestanding appliance.
Product views
Inspired by overhead luggage (slimmer at 30cmX45cmX22cm) w a telescopic handle that extends to 40cm. The base (that doubles as the front leg w slim linear bottom vent)conceals the flushed wheels, mini digital inverter compressor module & interactive LED display that says "Miele"by default.
Product in use
With the BOX APP that monitors the arrival of deliveries (w optional tracker & countdown), lock status, internal & external temperature, battery life (if dock-free) & optional cam, any user can be practically ANYWHERE, ANYTIME. (Where there is a phone signal... of course)
