The main challenges we faced when designing this ironing station for Miele were to make sure all the components fitted together perfectly, whilst maintaining clean, unobtrusive overall aesthetics. We also needed to find a safe and easy-to-use mechanical solution for the legs, which included space-saving folding functionality along with an additional overall height adjustability. Great attention was given to every design detail - a challenging task considering the number of parts, materials and manufacturing processes involved.
 
Design 3 collaborated closely with the Miele corporate design team as well as the engineering and manufacturing experts to achieve a highly functional, user-friendly yet aesthetically convincing solution.
