PlayStation 2 Slim
The PlayStation 2 Slim, made by Sony, is characterized by an essential and minimal design, which has made the product an icon and one of the most loved consoles by gamers. Its geometric shape, its finishes, its minimum thickness and its formal elegance have allowed the product to withstand the passing of the years and still be aesthetically pleasing.
Redesign
The intent of the project is to create a redesign of the product according to the current aesthetic and technical canons, giving new life to the console. The goal is to keep its identity intact, respecting its main formal characteristics and dimensions, optimizing some features.
Concept
The definition of the shape comes from the intention to preserve the formal characterization of the original product and leave the presence of two main volumes unchanged, reinterpreting and adapting the other elements present.
Disposition
The product is designed to be positioned in two different configurations, horizontal and vertical.
This is achieved thanks to the positioning of a support base which, fixed in the lower part, allows the vertical positioning of the console.
Air flow
The console is designed to ensure the cooling of the components in both positions, through the creation of side and rear openings in order to ensure the constant passage of air inside.
The console positioned vertically, is raised from the support base, to ensure the vertical passage of air.
Thanks for watching.
