The Process

Journey to Final Design

01

Inspiration

"We wanted to create a product that worked alongside Poppin’s existing product line."

Emphasis on form and look. Inspired by Poppin’s collection with a focus on their trays and cups.

02

Sketches

"It needed to be a customizeable system."

The focus was on the balance between the accessories and eliminating clutter.

03

Prototypes

"I had to choose which designs worked, and which didn’t."

Through this part of the process, I was able to narrow down which designs to move forward with based on how it functioned.

04

Style

"High-Rise had to blend seamlessly with Poppin’s existing products."

Clean, colorful and simple. Everything that embodies the Poppin’s brand.
