While a regular electric kettle is capable of boiling water, it lacks the features necessary to provide users with more precise control. This can be particularly important when brewing tea and coffee, as factors such as timing and temperature can impact the final taste and quality of the beverage.
Problem.
From quick thumbnail sketches to ideation sketches, the aim is to seamlessly integrate a touch screen into the kettle while providing an easy interactive angle and design language that looks cohesive in every detail.
Ideation.
The design features a minimal yet dynamic form that revolves around the interaction screen. The technology is packaged into one unit which includes a touch screen and temperature sensor at the bottom, and the entire unit is removable.
Final Design.
The interface provides intuitive control through the ring dial. The outer ring allows the user to set the water temperature and the inner ring shows the water level.
User Interface.
The main material of the body is stainless steel and aluminum with a wooden handle to provide a warm and comfortable grip. A variety of colors and wood can be selected to better fit the home interior.
