How
Since 2015, Edea Design has been a steady provider of design services for Viessmann, including industrial design for some of their core products particularily the MD5, SV5 and SV8-PI cabinets. We have worked in close collaboration with Viessmann’s and their suppliers’ teams to design and develop top-of-the-line refrigeration products in the signature Viessmann style.
Services: Industrial Design, User Experience Design, Concept Development, Manufacturing Support
Unique & inspiring
Our design work always starts from understanding the people and the context. In case of retail environments, we don’t just design the refrigeration units that will be placed there; we create products and product lines that match, contributing to a unique and inspiring shopping experience.
Sides to the story
Favorable product placement and ease of access set the baseline for design in the retail environment. Creating a great shopping experience is what drives us, but we always make sure to cater for the entire consumption chain as well: ease of installation, product circulation, hygiene, and cleaning.
Cool & green
We design Viessmann’s refrigeration systems with the entire retail store in mind, creating products that present the goods favorably while ensuring maximal energy efficiency.
From workshop to shop floor
Designed to align with Viessmann's profile
Originally developed by one of Viessmann’s suppliers, the new modular semi-vertical system, SV8, needed to align with the rest of the product portfolio. Working closely with both Viessmann and their supplier, we helped align the design profile of the new product, going from concept to mass production with a complete design harmony.
Demonstrated sustainability
Viessmann’s EsyCool Green is a total solution for sustainable and fossil-free retail store cooling and heating. We built an interactive hybrid prototype for Viessmann’s booth at the Euroshopper 2023 exhibition, demonstrating the functionality and positive impact of the system. The demo now lives on at Viessmann’s HQ.
