Here’s a Project Cubit post from a few weeks back, where we thought we would share an overall look at the some of the ways we envision people will be able to use project cubit, by showing some concept desk setups we have visualised. Whatever items you use on a daily basis, we want project cubit to be able to be configured directly to your needs through its modular design

Project Cubit https://theformlab.com/case-studies-blog/project-cubit

The aim of Project Cubit is to develop a modular desk system, enabling users to quickly adapt their workspace between different tasks or different users. By creating a modular furniture system, we aim to create a eco system of accessories and replacement parts to help extend the products lifecycle.

Integrating power into the design of Project Cubit was a key consideration from the very beginning. We knew we wanted to create a product which could interact with the electrical items people use at their desks everyday. Here’s one concept we came up with, of integrating the power supply into the leg supports. This would allow us to keep the desktop looking thin and sleek, while still being able to include a high power power supply for providing power to range of common desk items

At Form Lab, we believe that a design sprint is a great way to get a new project idea off the ground. It enables a small group of designers and specialists to come together to rapidly research, investigate, conceptualise, develop and test a range of ideas quickly. Above you can see in detail a 5 day plan for how a design sprint works, and what it involves. This is a service we are able to offer and arrange here at Form Lab, so if you think it will suit you, check our website for more info or get in touch!

For this weeks Project Cubit post, we shared the results of some research we had been carrying out for the project. Above are some snippets of articles we have researched, as well as studies we have carried ourselves to discover how people’s work habits have changed, what they expect to happen going forward, as well as what they do and don’t like about their current desk setups. All valuable feedback to us to help us ensure we get the best design experience for Project Cubit!

Thermal analysis of electronics devices, an introduction https://theformlab.com/case-studies-blog/thermal-analysis-of-electronics-device-power-amp-pa

Thermal analysis can be a great way to help understand the thermal performance of your design before paying for costly costly prototypes or production models of your products design. Through Thermal Analysis, we can simulate the heat output from the components inside your product, as well as how we
