Electronic jewellry - functionality “on the go”

Daria Toma

 
This is a portable entertainment product, worn with focus on the visible expression.
It offers a new user experience, questioning the concepts; accessory and functionality.
Whilst exploring the boundaries and properties of these and what they have in common.
Aiming to make this accessible in a new way, this symbiosis is the essence of the concept.

The design incorporates a different approach to wearing and using functionality “on the go”.
The project started with the idea; that the inside should be concealed and the outer part exposed. The appearance is essential; the overall impression is what the observer will receive. The façade can offer a user privacy and individuality in the sense of the “unobvious”.

The product is jewelry with music entertainment. It is worn during the day. No parts need to be removed or added for the music function to be used instantly in the leisure time. Info and power to the jewel set and between pieces is transferred wireless. The outer material is sterling silver with metallic stone details. The string is leather. The jewel can be used by everyone. It is easy to operate and to orientate by the structure on a small number of buttons.
