We can already control temperature, lighting and music in our homes. But what if we could design the air itself?
Aalto is our advanced design concept for a connected air purifier that combines air purification with fragrance delivery, personalised to mood and time of day.
As a category-redefining concept we applied a design language that was as gentle and pure as the concept itself, one that would recede into the home rather than demand attention from it.
Already, the air purifier market is growing fast as consumers seek solutions to reclaim clean air. Beyond breathing space, we believe that curated air ambience is a consumer-tech opportunity for brands that want to offer 'personalised' air technology for our homes. Building on this idea, we developed an advanced design concept that would allow us to curate the air around us.
We can already control air temperature and quality, but what if we could incorporate fragrance delivery to enhance and alter mood states? From moments of relaxation in the evenings to heightened focus while we work, Aalto diffuses natural scents according to your preferences while keeping the air fresh and clean.
A concept so 'essential' as 'air' requires a design language that is equally gentle, passive and pure. This in mind, the product is designed to become at one with the living space, neutral and natural.
Is this the future for air purification in our homes?
+ Advanced Design for consumer brands
For two decades, we have been asked by brands to create solutions to big strategic questions:
what should we do next? How do we pivot to stay ahead? How do we use design to tell our story in a way that's meaningful? Above all, how do we decipher what's right for our progress, people and the planet?
