Pleno

2004

 

“Friendly and clean, the Pleno phone is already part of the routine of millions of Brazilian homes.”

Considered a best-selling national design, the award-winning Pleno was the best-selling phone
on the market for over a decade.

The underlying challenge of the project was to find an innovative solution for the conceptual characteristics adopted in the design with high technical and aesthetic quality, resulting in a product without excess, with its own character. We managed to reduce plastic material by 30% in manufacture, and in principle, screws are not used in its assembly, conferring an ecological purpose and engaged with environmental issues.

In order to evaluate possibilities, transitions and dimensions as efficiently as possible, the team initially developed a series of ideation sketches and models in foam models carved by hand.
