Whale - Computer
2017. Personal work
Recently, most people use their own assembled computers. However, it is difficult for people who are not familiar with computer assembly to improve performance by changing computer parts. Therefore, even a person who does not know the assembling of the computer designed a product that can utilize the characteristics of the self-made assembled computer.
Motive
In order to escape from the linear outline of the existing computer, 'whale' designed a blue whale shape as a motif. The overall shape was designed to be a smooth organic body. The front panel line and the vent hole on the back also well represent the partial shape of the whale.
Iconic design
I added LED to emphasize the characteristic front panel line of "Whale". In addition, we improved the completeness of the design by covering the vent hole on the back and the screw with the cover of the fabric material.
Simple module exchange function
"Whale" is easy to use by users who are unfamiliar with assembling computers by applying an intuitive module opening and closing structure. When the user wants to upgrade the computer, it can easily replace the graphic card, hard disk, RAM card etc by opening the pull-out module on the front part of "Whale".
The LED on the front can adjust the color according to user's preference.
