Now there are more and more enterprises attach importance to industrial design, and are willing to introduce professional industrial designers into their own enterprises, to provide stable and continuous help and support for their own development, which is in fact a very good choice, but also the surface of the industrial design of the non-development of the industrial design is step by step towards maturity, the following answers to how to choose industrial designers for the enterprise, I hope to help you.
1, look at the designer's previous cases and design works, to understand his sense of aesthetics, performance skills, grasp of shape and color. In particular, you can analyze the designer's good performance and style characteristics through these effects, which will be shown through the various features on the map.
2, for a case in-depth understanding of the designer's design process, if the rendering is the visual level of things, then the design process reflects the designer's thinking level of things, industrial design focuses on practicality and feasibility, not just artistic. First of all, quietly listen to the designer to introduce the case of the background and analysis of customer needs, which can reflect the designer is not the project has a deep understanding and comprehensive analysis, and find the key points of the design, and then let the designer to speak out his design ideas, of course, which contains more content, but you only need to listen to the process of the designer is not his own unique insights and ideas, or from start to finish, the design process. Ideas, or from the beginning to the end are saying "the customer said how how 。。。。。。" and so on. and so on. Of course, a designer who is just a sounding board and a photocopier is not a good designer. Really good designers have a comprehensive understanding of the problem, can give professional advice from the design point of view, especially fast-thinking designers are often able to come up with some bold ideas. In the design process can be justified, with a lot of data investigation and experimentation to illustrate the problem, always from a user perspective to think.
3, look at the production process, the final result of industrial design is to be put into production, some designers often can not start from a practical point of view, the industrial design into a personal artistic creation, while ignoring the feasibility of the production and processing, always think that the most advanced, the most beautiful is the best, this is the designer's taboo, but also the designer is not mature performance. Experienced industrial designers are not only good at product aesthetics performance, but also proficient in materials, processes and even structural design, so good industrial designers are to have enough experience and experience. They design something basically consistent with the rendering, and if you have the conditions, you can let the designer provide the physical object, which is the most illustrative and direct.
4, look at the designer specializes in the industry, there are many types of products, broadly divided into: digital electronics, household appliances, medical equipment, electrical appliances, transportation and so on. Each type of product focuses on different aspects of industrial design, even more experienced designers are not guaranteed to specialize in all industries, so companies must combine their product areas to choose the designer. This is like going to the hospital to see a doctor first of all to register, register to choose a different department.
5, the combination of the above points can basically see the designer's design ability, but there is also an important point must be examined, that is, the designer's professionalism, industrial design is a product about the future fate of an important part of the design process is often complex and changeable, so designers tend to encounter a lot of unexpected problems and obstacles, so the designer can not just rely on So designers can not just rely on a whim and inspiration to do design, (although the inspiration of this point is very much needed) but can continue to maintain the enthusiasm and enthusiasm for the project, which requires designers to have a high degree of professionalism and calm attitude, should have a certain degree of etiquette when talking to customers, promised to do some of the things can be accomplished in a timely manner, as a means of understanding whether the designer has a certain degree of professionalism.
Finally, combine your project to communicate with the designer, a good designer will be in the conversation with the customer, to understand the function of the product, the user orientation, etc., try to guide the customer to tell what kind of design is needed in mind. Usually, the experience of the designer is to rely on the accumulation of time, the more cases have been designed, the more experience. So it's important to choose a designer for your organization.
