PMR Walkie Talkie for Solitech, at Sequoia-studio from Nicolas MELAN
PMR Walkie Talkie for Solitech, at Sequoia-studio

Brief:
Imagine a walkie-talkie range, one with a professional look, one for beginners (for inside & outside use), to help Solitech to be more successful on the European market.

Strategic design choice:
Manage the integration of technical components (PCB and existing components provided by Solitech), to design the most suitable product architectures, and to provide compacts and ergonomic products.

My involvement in this project:
• design team leader & lead designer • project / ressources management
• client interface • market analysis
• trend analysis • product general architecture
• internal component placement & tech integration • industrial design (sketching, CAD, CMF)
• 3D rendering • follow-up with engineers and factories

Solitech - Professional walkie-talkie A deliberately simple formal style to stand out of the market. A more professional look, led by a choice of code colours (black / orange), inspired by tools and construction sites machines / vehicles. It features a reinforced external antenna and a shockproof rubber (over moulding), to ensure a good grip and assert the style of the product.
Solitech - Walkie-talkie for beginners This simple PMR have a pebble shape, a neck line attachment point, and a rubber (over moulding) on the largest part of the product. The design does not try to look powerful or loaded with technical features, it is a simple but functional product. The talking button is orange, to attract the eye, and help beginners to locate the talk button. “Speak by pressing the ORANGE button, mate”.
