Challenge
The primary challenge was to deliver an industrial design that integrates a compact and elegant form, full functional capabilities, intuitive operability, and personalized customization into one cohesive product.

Research & Insights
Starting from core functional requirements, our research revealed that dehumidifiers are not only used for indoor air drying. Users expect seamless operation while fulfilling additional functional demands and adapting to diverse usage scenarios.

Solution
The DEV Dehumidifier is designed to adapt to multiple environments. The ring-shaped handle groove on its body allows users to lift the device effortlessly from any angle without needing to adjust their posture. We added subtle grooves here to enhance grip friction while concealing parting lines. The air outlet is angled downward to prevent dust accumulation. The water tank features three diagonal windows for convenient water level monitoring. Both the air outlet, inlet, and water level indicators adopt a unified design language using slanted racetrack oval shapes.




Results & Impact
The DEV Dehumidifier stands out as an outstanding product seamlessly blending minimalist aesthetics, intuitive usability, and meticulous attention to detail, delivering an exceptional user experience throughout its operation.
