Contest Brief

Our company, Dahua Electrics, is a very successful vacuum cleaner manufacturer. Our products have been sold 3 million units per year to all over the world. We have strategic cooperation with Electrolux, DeLonghi, Ariete, and etc.

Our company is now looking for talented desingers to work on our best selling models and hopefully create some new designs that are both stunning, and suitable for the common market. That is to say, we do not want it too advant-garde so no concept models please. We would highly appreciate designs that can be accepted by most people.

Attached are two photos of our best selling models. The first one is a bag type canister, the other is a cyclone type vacuum (bag-less). Please use these as your references. You may choose either one of these and work your magic.

We would also love to have long term partnerships with creative and talented designers but we are having difficuly locating them domestically. Therefore please take this chance and show us your creativity. All your efforts are very much appreciated. Cheers!

Andy Fu

    Hi,
    Interesting project.
    Just wanted some more clarity.
    Is it right to say that in this contest, you are looking at some good visual aesthetics.
    And then the Detailed concept 3D model would be looked at later?

    Hi,
    I just wanted some clarity as to what presentable medium are you looking for, a pen sketch, a photoshop render or a 3d model to convey the idea?

      Dear gsingh1989, thanks for your message. It is better to be a rendered image of your design. We will appreciate 3D models as well, but we do not mind going into that after the contest.

      Is this your original design? Your web link is from Electrolux, so if this will cause patent issues we cannot accept it. Please let us know.

    Dear Andy, Could you please provide more details about the product line, product specs and what market segment are you targeting?If you can share the company website/ company profile that would also help. Also how detailed design do you wish to have? -

      Dear dg29494, sorry about the late reply. We are new to this website and how this works. Our company has more than 50 vacuum cleaner products currently selling to the whole world. Our website is www.nbdahua.com, on it you would find some older models only (our customers do not go to our website anyway). But we are hoping to see some improvements on our successful models as attached in the contest. At this point we require appearance design only, nothing for the structure or engineering. Hope this helps! We look forward to seeing your work. Cheers.
