Our designers create the form, character and persona of the products we develop. They conduct design, human factors and usability research to determine what features and attributes will make a product rewarding to use and desirable to own. IDE has extensive experience in all aspects of Industrial Design and Product Design.
Design research and analysisIDE has the people and experience to understand your technology, market, product requirements, competitors and future product goals.
Human factors and ergonomicsUnderstanding how your clients interact with your product through human factors and ergonomics is a very important part of the IDE industrial design services. We accomplish this by developing physical models, 3D CAD models and by conducting user research.
Ideation and conceptual developmentIDE ideation and concepts give our clients a view of what their products can look like from all aspects of design including shape, finish, materials, colors and manufacturing processes.
Once a concept direction is chosen by our client IDE begins refinements of the design utilizing 3D CAD surfacing along with traditional sketches and renderings. This form development shows our clients a very realistic representation of their new product before mechanical design/engineering and prototyping begins.
IDE is known for developing product aesthetics that are not only functional but integrated in the overall design taking user experience and look and feel into consideration as well as finish, manufacturing methods and target cogs.
Whether as part of a complete new product development program or a standalone presentation for a startup seeking funding IDE’s renderings help our clients make decisions regarding the direction of a new project or tell a story of a future company.

Color, materials and finish play a key role in the user experience of any product. Many factors must be considered when developing a plan for manufacturing process (materials), colors and finishes. Typically, quantity requirements and life cycle of a product are the driver in choosing the correct material and manufacturing process. Colors and finishes follow material choice and allow IDE to circle back to the original chosen design concepts expected by our clients.
Combined with IDE’s ergonomics and human factors design user interaction is an important aspect of product design allowing for pleasing aesthetics combined with ease of use of a product. (Need More)
