One of the key design challenges was integrating the air vents seamlessly with the overall form of the device. This involved addressing several technical requirements, such as optimizing airflow, accommodating the HEPA filter fleece, and ensuring sufficient impact resistance in case the device is dropped.
A standout feature of the new cordless vacuum cleaner line-up, which we helped redesign, is the innovative 'Flextube.' This feature allows users to bend the tube, making it easier to reach areas beneath furniture.
To enhance haptics and overall user experience, the 'Flextube' release button and the palm rest area were designed with the signature hatch texture used across Bosch's product portfolio.
All other buttons and touch points on the Unlimited 10 feature the same hatch pattern, ensuring a consistent and cohesive design. This uniform pattern enhances both the aesthetic appeal and user experience by providing a tactile grip and a contemporary look.
This project was developed together with Anna Röder, Cheng-Yo Lee and Maximilian Krenn.
