Core N/A is the result of a deep dive into the concept of Keep-Worthiness, a field of research in design that seeks to understand why some products seem to stick around for longer than others.
our vision was simply to identify and generalize a few of the qualities at the core of keep-worthy products and apply them to a product of our own making.
Keep-wothiness: a guide to keep-worthy products
We comprised these general ideas into a guide (currently only in Norwegian). The guide is example-driven, where certain design decisions behind Core n/a are highlighted and discussed.
CORE N/A IS A CONCEPT SHOWING HOW A SIMPLE DEVICE WITH A HANDLE, A MOTOR AND A BANK OF BATTERIES CAN POWER MULTIPLE THINGS IN THE HOME.
Here exemplified with a vacuum cleaner configuration, and a beam mixer.
