Design Bridge Blog Post - Red Dot Museum

Red dot museum, Singapore.

" Being a Product Designer that has just moved to work at Design Bridge, Singapore, there was one Museum top of my list to visit, the Red Dot Museum. I have been here 4 weeks and have visited it twice already. It is full of inspiring and aspirational award winning product and retail design.

Here are some highlights.



Design team of the year for 2010, went to….. Tupperware! You were probably expecting Apple, Sony, Phillips, Blackberry, Dyson, LG, BMW etc, but you must agree it is a well-deserved award. I bet you all own or have used a piece of their iconic design?

My final thought when leaving the museum was, “how many brands can I remember?” The answer was slightly disappointing, “not many, 5, maybe 10”, demonstrating how many product manufacturers are still in need of consistent 3D brand equity. Something I hope to examine further."

The red dot museum Singapore is definitely worth a visit and if you are not across in Singapore anytime soon then is also, Red Dot Museum, Essen, Germany.

phone case


Some speculative work for a Semi-hard case with built in USB connector

It could be a great accessory for a Nokia E71.

The E71 provides a businessperson with all the tools to be efficient and productive, but with their busy work schedule a charger is not always at hand.

This concept case has a built in USB connector so the phone can sync with any computer or even a USB power plug.

coca-cola glass


Original article on redcubemarketing.com

Vibrandt Form has created a limited edition glass for Coca-Cola. As part of Coca-Cola’s European marketing plan, the new glass is a promotional item for McDonalds restaurants in Europe and the design will launch first in France during August.

The new design has been 10 months in the creative process. With a focus on refreshment and enjoying life, it takes inspiration from Coke’s current global marketing platform - The Coke Side of Life - and integrating into the overall design solution. Key to the design was producing a 3D form from Coca-Cola’s 2D branding, to create a synergy between the two: taking flat design and creating a physical experience.

The design team looked at how consumers interact with the brand and the drinking experience. The outcome was a glass design true to the original personality and spirit of the brand, but with a fresh perspective and a modern twist.

The glass starts with a base that is true to the iconic bottle shape, but as you move up the glass, the contours explode into life and movement creating a synergy with the current brand positioning – The Coke Side of Life – through the use of icons such as the butterfly and the balloon. Creating a design with its own identity, while also making it instantly recognisable as part of the Coca-Cola brand.

McDonalds has been using collectable Coca-Cola glasses for the past 4 years and wanted to maintain the momentum with a new edition. The design solution strengthens the Coca-Cola brand equities with a refreshing and differentiating approach to previous glass designs.

Lead designer, Tom Gilbert said “Coca-Cola has such strong, versatile 2D brand campaign running at the moment we felt it was important to translate the graphic idea and create an equally as strong, versatile 3D brand representation in the form of their new glass.”
