Concept Product Design

Design contributions for FRENDS headphones, centered on redefining personal audio as a fashion-forward accessory without compromising acoustic performance. The project merged industrial design with jewelry-inspired detailing, elevating headphones from purely technical products into expressive, lifestyle-driven objects.

Development of the overall form language emphasized clean silhouettes, refined proportions, and premium material finishes including metal accents and soft-touch components. Comfort, adjustability, and wearability were key drivers in shaping the headband geometry and earcup design.
