Case Study - Riding Helmet
Design Case Introduction - Riding Helmet -
This is a design example of a bicycle helmet for schoolchildren. To balance design aesthetics with domestic safety certification standards (JIS), we advanced the product development through close communication with the client. The silhouette line that gently slopes towards the back of the head and the character line that bulges from the front to the top of the head serve as a counterbalance, making the overall height appear lower and effectively directing rainwater away during rides in wet conditions, thereby reducing visibility obstruction. Alongside the design mentioned above, I was involved in the interior design considering efficient assembly for mass production, as well as the design of the adjuster mechanism that operates reliably with a simple structure. The development flow for this product is as follows: - Exterior design - Interior design - Creation of design data - Creation of product data for molds - First prototype mock-up (for design confirmation) - Second prototype mock-up (for final confirmation) You can find more details on our company website.
