Final form and CMF
After deciding a direction, form exploration is carried out to get the final form. Final form is inspired of JIO brand language. A Soft body with straight cut striking looking dock station adds to the dynamism as a whole. The body has soft cut at back to allow easy grip. Also a couple of combinations were explored to make the form look more premium yet exciting. Single material and dual finish was picked as a final CMF. Bottom part has high gloss mirror finish which makes it stand out and thus creates a visual boundary for intuitive holding of the device.
