go-on The big city transport usually is very crowdet, so thats way people star using more and more the bicycle as a fast, autonomic, economic and ecologic way of transport. The biggest problem arrives when you stop using it. We don´tknow what to do with our bicycle when we go in a shop, at the undergound, when we want to carry it with us, or park it (afraid of it being stolen). Thats why this project raises the design of a fold bicycle for the EASD School. This bicycle can be fold easily by the pedal shaft (with only one movement)and in a confortable way (without haveing to make streght or weighing it). It’s very practicle at use and no use, due to the fact that you can transport it as a suitcase, thanks to the hang of the saddle. It is a design foccused for EASD
students and teachers, so its conceptualization takes on account its public. Thats why it has the concept of: Young (vitality), student (illusion), design (improvement), EASD (motivation), Valencia (immediate, fast), They are recapted in the concept “GOON“ because that’s what the schoool looks for, looking foward, innovating and improving. The EASD brand is appli in important aspects of the bycicle with the folding system and the concept “GO-ON”. The form of the brand it’s also applicated at the bycicle (easy and depured) and the use of the object (insctinctive, folding, easy and confortable) To end up, its sizes let us introduce it at the locker of EASD, giving more security to the user.
sta r pac k The com pany “Lantero em balaje” of the group “SICE”, is a m anufacturer of recycled cardboard com pany, that needed to innovate the design of a prem ium packaging for the sale of valencian oranges at the united kindoom superm arkets. Star-Pack is the perfect packaging for the best oranges, the valencian oranges horchad. This recycled cardboard folding it’s easy to m anufacture (a sim etric tem plate very sim plified) and an easy doing (in only 3 m ovem ents), It’s very atractive in what the sale is refered on an estandard superm arket due to its nice looking.
Perm its a safe transp o r t because it m anteins e a ch orange in a individual plac e . Also its transport since th e superm arket to hom e is ve r y confortable, because th e weight destribuites itself in th e stucture.
When it´ s em ptied you ca n give it a second use, it’s th e perfect organizer for ho me elem ents (like pencils, socks, etc.) extending its useful life .
g uau ! Pets are a nice company for many families nowadays, but if they aren’t well cared they can bring many infections for the pet and also to the family. By this is very important its worming, because if it is itchy, you scratch.
!

But there are problems with the worming because they are very harmful for the human skin, and they need useing gloves for its application, or some of them frighten pets (like sprays). That’s why we want to create a new container. Guau! is a new packaging with roll-on dispenser, with a flea liquid by the well known brand Frontline. Roll-on is a innovative dispenser to the sector and it is in charge of deworm the pet which will be very confortable because is very easy to use.
Its shape is very ergonomic and throws better the liquid, and with the correct quantity, and avoids the skin contact. The colors are accord with the company ones and advertise that its content is prohibited for humans. About design we can see it in its shape that symbolize the form of a dog with an Isanelino´s necklace (wich is used to avoid that the dog scratches itself). Its name symbolize the onomatopeia that the dog does when it barks, “Guau!”, and also to the onomatopeia of surprise (like woow!).The union of design, ergonomity, and protection makes this product very interesting for the sector, because there aren’t a lot of design examples in it.
abbrac cio Do you need a hug? This project raises the design of a chair that fits to the Valencian Andreu Wolrd filosophy. Thats why its m anufactured in beech wood, through the wood bent, which Andreu World is an especialist. The estetic also continues with the com pany’s filosophy, with its soft and elegant form s, the use of beech wood with good qualities finishes. This design rests on the “em otional design” to apport a sum m ation of the product’s value.
It’s supported on the h u g ’ s feeling and from this idea th e nam e of “ABBRACCIO”. It’ s shape seem s as if the tw o front legs hug you whe yo u seat down”. Throught the hug sym bol it is tryed to express, confortabi lity, protection and quality th a t defines it, trying to create a n affection of the user with th e chair.
cuelga m e A reasonable quantity of lighting sorround us on our day a day, but a very interesant fact is that all of them are hanged on the ceeling, wall or to an energy source, and they do not apport flexibility in their use. CUÉLGAM E (HANG M E) is a very useful inalam bric lam p that can be hanged wherever light is needed, It’s sim ply form express intuitively it´ s use, from where is hanged and from where it´ s ilum inated. Due to the fact that it’s shape is a sim plified union between the silhouettes of a lam p and a hanger.
This iconic form searches fo r a easy understanding. Thanks to it’s light bat te r y that feeds the LED bulbs, it doesn’t weigh very m uch, a n d the lam p can be used a n d hanged wherever you want. In addition its shape perm its placing it in the inside o f wardrobe to end up with th e problem of the lack of ligh t. Also you can use it to a s a hanger to em phasise a pi e ce of cloth.
to c h o p o lv o s “Football it’s also that way” is an expository project that investigates how football inspired the design, directed by the En Blanc studio.Through raffle is established the situation (scenary and m om ent) to the developm ent of a project, that can be selected (it is the case) to be exposed in the exposition of the M uVIM inaugurated on June 2011. The scenary is “The pub with friends”, and the m om ent “The end of the m atch, we’ve lost”. The fans, on front of a defeat can show anger, disappointm ent and sadness feelings, because their team hasn’t arrived to their objective, winning the Eurocope.
Taking into account the scen e , it appears the problem of h o w to show their feelings a n d being able to not keep in g them them selves. Look fo r an excuse to end up with th e feelings and m ake sure th a t nobody will see him crying fo r a gam e.
The “TOCHOPOLVOS” swee ts (That coloquialy means someone who is very”depressed”) a r e the perfect excuse so that th e rest of the people do not k n o w that you are crying beca u se of the defeat. Because t h e y are so spicy that if you ar e n ’ t crying they’ll m ake you cry .

optics p O S di s p l ay Nowadays the Point of sale display, is som ething not very developed by the Optics shops, That’s why glasses were choosed as a object to em phasize. It was found the need of calling the atention of the consum er, thanks to the visual im pact, m aking them interact and highlighting the product relevance. POS DISPLAY is based on action, when som eone sees a m irror they instinctively watch them selves in it. That’s way when a person walks to an optic he finds a wall full of m irrors that distort the shape in which it says “don’t you look
alright?“, this m akes you th in k about your vision’s quality a n d propose yourself if you are in a need of glasses. Going forward, this per so n finds fram ed m irrors, with a sticker of the shape of one o f the type of glasses that yo u can find inside. When this person see its e lf, he’s wearing the glasses a n d can try all of them looking a t the m irrors. This way we ca n m ake the frontier of having to enter the shop dissapear. In addition is very unconfortab le m aking them go to the ne xt m irror, com ing back for th e next m odel, etc.
