Research Topic 033 / 200
Gloss shells readily show visible marks.
Prototypes display brilliantly; daily handling reveals obvious fingerprints and scratches.
Three-step solution method
- Target high-contact zones and collect typical post-use surface states.
- Compare textures, gloss levels and finishes by area while retaining essential brand characteristics.
- Use identical handling and cleaning tasks to assess the maintenance demands of different samples.
Key Deliverables
- High-Contact Areas
- Surface Finish Samples
- Maintenance Comparison
Verification Approach
Assess mark visibility, cleaning frequency and tactile feedback.
