HEX SPEAKER
URBAN OUTFITTERS


2018

Working for Urban Outfitters in Philadelphia, United States of America, I developed a series of Audio & Tech products. It is a collection of 5 total products. I was responsible for the product development process, design process, product management, and manufacturing process.

Urban Outfitters is thrilled to announce the launch of UO_TUNE_IN, UO’s first-ever in-house tech line. The Fall 2018. UO_TUNE_IN collection is a lo-fi meets modern hybrid, with each product created in tandem with a top tech factory that updates go-to tech accessories in contemporary colors and shapes. The collection is inspired by current tech trends while remaining influenced in past design with a retro palette, co-mingling sleek greys and blacks with 70s earth tones.
Take the beat with you on any adventure with this splash-proof, geometric speaker from UO_TUNE_IN, available exclusively at UO.

As the Leading Industrial Designer for Urban Outfitters Audio & Tech home department, I
spearheaded the program from its inception through to its production manufacturing feasibility. Collaborating closely with our external engineering team overseas, I oversaw the creation of design concepts, guided model making, and drove the CMF & design development studies. This involved active engagement across various organizational levels, including the Senior Art Director UO Home, Senior Vice Presidents, Head of Design, Product Managers, and Design team reviews.

Wirelessly stream audio through the hexagonal, Bluetooth-enabled speaker, featuring a rechargeable battery and splash-proof design that’s ready for just about anything. IPX4 splash-proof design withstands limited exposure to water, while 5-watt speaker offers high definition mono sound. Charge it up for 5 hours of continuous play with a micro USB and included charging cable. Constructed with a matte, soft-touch plastic enclosure with pop color accents peeking through. LED band that wraps around speaker acts as a status indicator for Bluetooth connectivity, battery power and more. UO_TUNE_IN is our first-ever in-house tech line, each piece designed with innovative function, signature soft-touch matte casing, fresh colors + only available right here at UO!
