First round of concepts, in the form of illustrator flats.
Second round, after client imput.
The main challenge was to accommodate the oversized hearing assist speaker and tech, without having the phone look too bulky, as we wanted the design to be sleek and professional.
The selected design!
The earcup is meant to remind of a speaker, emphasising the terminals premium audio technology.
XL keys, high contrast screen and hearcup are some of the 340s highlight features.
The stand can be used for color variation and CMFs.
Here's a few of the prototypes that were used to test out ergonomy (one of the major form factors, as we aimed for the product to be arthritis friendly).
And here a few pics of the finished product, taken from Plantronics online catalog.
