Beta desk

Kitchen Budapest, a creative community, needed a new tool that would elevate operational efficiency. This project started as an exercise & experiment in how a community can create a utility for itself using design thinking.

The team initiated research with a week-long workshop involving our co-workers. We gathered opinions on how to improve a steady work tool: the office desk. As the team consisted of a wide variety of creatives (programmers, sound designers, researchers, and start-up teams), the task became complex, and the demands were high for all.

 

The workshop was followed by a deep investigation and a series of experiments to uncover co-workers' real needs. After drawing conclusions, the design team wrote a concise brief and generated ideas accordingly.

Long hours were spent staring at colourful Post-it sketches. Lastly, a matrix of ideas was conceived and carefully grouped by the brief’s bullet points. Concepts were further developed in CAD, and the team could then move to the workshop to create actual mockups. The successful prototypes are being tested in-house.
