Industrial Design

As a product design engineering firm, we have a head for in-depth research and a creative bent for design and concept planning. Our team brings the best of both worlds to a project, giving us a particular knack for industrial design. Our dedication to detail and thoroughness delivers our clients a well-tested prototype that looks cool too.

User-Centered Research & Concept Development

Who and how your product will be used is integral to product development. There isn't much point in making something work unless it works well for the user. Problem-solving isn't always done in a lab coat; it's balancing aesthetics with functionality and manufacturability, too. We understand that creating products that make sense on paper is only half the battle. It needs to make sense for the user in reality, too. Intuitive form meets function - now that's our kind of challenge.

Iterative Concept Sketching & 3D Modeling

Instead of fabrics and sewing machines, we have advanced CAD tools like Rhino and SolidWorks to translate your idea into a digital model. Having a parametric model to digitally sculpt gives us a way to refine the form, and look at spatial constraints and ergonomics early in the process. We start broad, getting input from all stakeholders to better refine the design.

Rapid Prototyping & Functional Testing

Sketching out a digital model is an important step in the planning process, but we like to get our hands dirty. We use 3D printing, CNC machining, welding, and other rapid prototyping methods to interact with your concept. This is where we get to have fun with real-world testing of ergonomics and assembly fit, and explore user interaction before finalizing the design.

Advantages of Treetown Tech Doing Your Industrial Design

Enhanced Creativity

We hunt down solutions and overcome challenges while enhancing logic with artistry. We offer a creative approach that is reasoned out well, like pocket protectors in Hawaiian shirts.

Risk Mitigation

If the Fellowship had our sense of battling risk, Lord of the Rings would've been a very short book. We don’t like late-stage surprises and neither will you, so we work hard to identify risks upfront and at every stage of the project.

Visualization

Our tools for design and rapid prototyping give us early access to realistic samples that we can test, simulate, and show to end-users -- critical steps before building a real product.

A Partner in Problem Solving

Consider us your Auxiliary Problem-Solving Team. We don’t chafe at challenges, we thrive on them.

From Concept to Production,
Faster, Smoother, With Less Risk.

You have the vision. We have the team and expertise to get it built. Let's collaborate to innovate, problem-solve, and de-risk every step of the way.
