3D Conceptual Design
Whilst ZQ concentrated on the hard/software side, they approached various designers to create concepts across a vast array of aesthetics and front end designs.
NGON had already produced some work for the company a few years prior and were on the list to develop some visualisation renders of the final shell of the device once it had been finalised.
But going one step further, NGON put forward some design ideas that gradually won over their hearts and were acted upon.
The design took inspiration from handheld consoles of the 90’s, specifically the Gameboy SP, who whole flip aspect and feel of this device was pretty cool and compact back then and the idea was to take note but keep the screen visible for several aspects, including on-the-go quick browsing, AI/TV interaction mode, stats and messaging.
