Good Design Equals Good Advertisement Product
What is design? And how is design related to gift, plaque, stationery, and all the products around you? It is rather simple, good designs attract and sell. But there are also no bad designs. Paradox? Not really, as you only choose 1 good design over the others.
We believe that good design supersede most factors such as cost, delivery time etc. in choosing your product. For example, we have Ritter Pen by Germany. It comes with sleek design that most of us consider it as modern and ergonomic , yet the price is not cheap. Well, there is another selling point for Ritter Pen which is high quality ink refill but this is not within the scope of my discussion. Let us go back to the only 1 reason why you want to buy pen as corporate gift. The answer is because you want to run a good advertisement campaign.
Good advertising product is where higher percentile of consumers will likely choose one product over the others. And for case of Ritter pen, you will hope that consumer will pick your pen inside the pencil pouch. It further propagates the effect when new consumers aware of your brand and show interest.
What We Design
We consider ourselves as more of product designer. Over the years, we made custom plush toys, packaging, plaques, plastic toys and many more. Is it impossible to imagine that we do not have a focused product? How are we able to customize totally unrelated plush toy and trophy? Truth is, it is not hard once we understand the basic of the products; how the material behave, how to produce, how to apply finishing touch etc. We make our products true to our concept design. Here are some case studies.
QMA sword magnet
This is a sword magnet made for Qatar Museum Authority that look like a sword is poking through the fridge door. We started with 3D modelling and prototyping for approval. The 2 challenges that we had to solve at that time was getting a suitable magnet to hold the heavy fridge magnet and also finishing with gel enamel together with gold and chrome plating.
Metal Frame Trophy
We had been designing crystal trophy for a very long time and in 2019, we thought that we should join in the trend for the modern trophy. Modern trophy is visually aesthetic and futuristic. It incorporates elements of metal, wood, crystal or acrylic. Combining these materials is not something every workshop can do. Why do we dare to? Because we have knowledge of each material and necessary production to create a masterpiece.
Apollogroup Merlion Plush
Plush toy is a common product you see everywhere. Plush toy started off from a drawing board, whether it is a new sketch or modelled from something you see; car, sushi, and in this case it is our favourite merlion. We are requested to add a hood that can be pulled over merlion head. This is also considered as product design as we need to get the right fit for head, choosing the right hair and fur, and make it able to stand by itself.
GSK 3 balls on wood base
This is another premium gift that start with good product design. The request is to make 3 balls and sit on a wood base and each ball has a significant purpose to tell. Glass represents health, wood represents family and rubber represents resilence in career. So, what is challenge? Get the 3 balls of equal diameter for this small scale project. A good product design must be able to materialize into final form and doesnt stop at drawing board only.
There are many more custom products we made over the years. You can visit our product page to see the list. I considered plush toy as product design as well and it require us to visually the 3D concept of a illustration.
If you would like to custom made a new product for gift, you can contact us for discussion. Before that, you need to have an idea of your budget and general design and ample time for design and produce. It would be a pity if the timeline is too short.
