Lower the front decoration panel to not only make the upper hole as the wind inlet but also make the product the most steady condition and becomes different shape when compared with the general air purifier. In the fierce red sea market, the Deep Breath-Steady series makes an unsual blue sea market.

※Indifferent Marketing : one kind of product fulfills different needs
Design Concept “Auspicious”, which contains the meaning that wishes people lucky and good fortune. The main color of Auspicious Cap is red which represents good fortune in eastern society with anodizing coating to make the product just like a fine work. The lid handle is not only a part of the shape but also can make the lid stand steady when you take the lid off without the dilemma that not knowing where to put the lid. Electroplating button with polish stainless steel increase the quality of the product which is not only easy to use but also can decorate the interior.
Germ-proof handle which is easy to clean and makes you healthy.
Glass lid lets you check the food inside the pot easily.
Anodizing coating makes the product last longer and exhibits high quality.
Metalizing button becomes the highlight of the product and easy to manipulate
Functional lid handle is easy to use and lets the lid stand steadily.
Design Improvements Improving the traditional three people rice cooker ,polish and strengthen every part of the product when keeping the whole image. At the handle part, optimize the traditional two-side handle into the whole round nano germ proof handle which is convenient to lift and look after your health. Replace the stainless steel lid with the tempered glass lid that is not only easy to know the cooking situation but also with the radian of the lid, the drops condense from steam will flow into the outer pot and won’t pollute the food. Abandon the old version inverted cone shape handle and replace with standable handle. When your finish cooking, you won’t have to worry where to put the lid. The stand angle prevents the drops from splashing out. Keep the classic operation way and increase the quality by IMD technique which is easy to manipulate and artistic with the electroplated buttons.
After
Before Hard to lift
Hold tightly
Traditional handle is hard to lift and the gap between the handle and the pot cover that will be very hot and hurt user’s hand while lifting the cooker.
Wraping the cooker with nano silicon germ-proof handle which is easy to lift and keeps family healthy. The handle is easy to clean and makes the cooker sanitary all the time.
Unknown situation
Under control
The stainless cover makes it hard to know the cooking condition and the radian of the cover makes it hard for the condensed drops to flow into outer pot. The result will be over cooked and polluted food.
The material of the cover is tempered glass which not only let users know the food cooking situation but the radian of the lid can guide the drops back into the outer pot so that won’t pollute the food and keept the original flavor of food.
Non-ergonomic
Stand auspiciously
The conventional inverted cone shape is short of functionality and there is no heat insulation between handle and cover which is prone to hurt users. Because there is no space to put the lid, the drops inside will spill out easily.
Functional handle which can be integrated with cover and stand on the table steadily. Because of it’s place angle, the drops inside will stay still and won’t spill outside and keeps the table clean.
Old school
New Style
Old-fashion button switch which doesn’t integrate into the product and becauset it’s just the injection color that can’t set the quality off and not having the high quality boutique feeling, either.
IMD control panel which not only blends with the product but also enhances the quality. Keeping the class control form and demonstrates elegant, boutique style with electroplating.
Auspicious Cap brings you a healthier and promising life !
Design Refinements According to the study before, we can know that users don’t necessarily use the cooker at home, there are other needs that users will bring food to the office or school to eat, just like bring the lunch box. Through collecting relative product and analyze, we discover that the personal cooker on the market just have handle for users to lift and there is no convenient design such as pot body handle to easily move the cooker. There are some products which are accompanied with bag and transfrom into the box bag immediately. Combine the advantages above, we keep the classic pot body handle and cut one part of the handle in accordance witch the shape to maintain the whole feeling. In addition to the handle, we did some research about the carry bag to add the bag design into the next generation product and enhances functionality.

Reunion
團圓 Analysis of BBQ activity BBQ
- BBQ is part of the delicacies in Taiwan BBQ activity is always accompanied with reactions between people which can draw people together. At the night market, we can eat delicious foods like BBQ, roast corn. If we have a convenient BBQ tool at home, we can not only eat safely but also bring new enjoyment for food detail-oriented Taiwanese.
- Eat safely and the BBQ tool The best material for the BBQ grill is stainless steel but it’s too expensive for customer to buy. The iron material is less expensive but it rust easily so producer often put the zinc coating to prevent it from rusted. The drawback is that zinc is easy to melt, and it will cause heavy metal poisoning with high temperature, acid and the metal element will melt out.
- Why Hornblende? ．Far-infrared ray heats the food evenly, indirect heating which won’t destroy the flavor of food, capillarity effect to draw the the oil and keep it healthy. ．According to different ingredients, there is still a casting iron grill to add different flavor. ．There are Korean top hornblende and pluton to choose from.

Analysis of current product - THP-100S - Advantages ．Indirect heating function which can cook food evenly. ．Removing and washing design of flagstone, grill, drip pan. ．Use flagstone or BBQ grill to cook and stir fry food according to different needs. ．Light weight which is easy move to other places.
- Disadvantages ．The switch is on the front side and not easy to use. ．Ineffitive heating because of the hanging heating tube. ．The drip pan is too close to the body which makes it hard to take off and clean. ．The gap between flagstone and body is too bigh that the oil will easily spill out when cooking. ．Small size flagstone cook less food at the same time. ．It will burn the surface of table when cooking.

Design images According to the studies before, the air purifier concept proposal should not only follow the big concept, but also refer to the design image which will be mounted into the concept. After researching the product design trend, the design image words are filtered into five key words which are fluid, simple, clean, homey, and friendly.
- Fluid - Simple - Clean - Homey - Friendly.
Design concept This concept emphasizes the “flow� image of the product, so the top of the design is just like air flowing process. It also indicates the progress of air filtering. The air outlet morphes into the whole shape and hides in the color which will give users a nihilistic feeling.
Best air Take off to replace the filters
Better air
Bad air
Split Air Conditioner Design Policy First start with few image words which are related to the product proposal, and could be the adjectives of the product. After sorting out these key images, try to integrate them into the design language and apply to the shape or detail. Because this is a rapid design project, the proposals should catch the key images accurately.
