01
Design Parameters
The project focused on creating a new headphone design for a company of our choosing in three weeks. Initial steps involved creating mood boards for our chosen company and sketching concepts. The final design was modeled in Solidworks and rendered using Keyshot.
02
Final Design
Designed to let users listen to the music they love on their way to their next hike, climb, or adventure in headphones inspired by Patagonia’s iconic style and Worn Wear program that gives extra life to old gear.
The concept focuses on using waste material from Patagonia clothing and hard goods, such as recycled nano puff material on the ear cushions and recycled bag straps along the headband. Additional components are designed to use Newlight’s carbon-negative AirCarbon material inline with Patagonia's dedication to sustainability.
