Zolar - Heat Mitigation Solution 2017



Opportunity in the Market
This project was focused on revitalizing a renowned Australian furniture company which was based on domestic indoor products. Venturing into outdoor furniture designs and collaborating with councils can benefit the business both revenue wise and also widening its operations into new dimensions of the furniture world. 




Background
In-order to revitalise the business interests in regards to the Australian furniture company Eaststyle, venturing into outdoor public furniture designs and collaborating with councils can benefit the business both revenue wise and also widening its operations into new dimensions of the furniture world.

Focusing on outdoor furniture that promotes heat mitigation can ensure that they are producing products that not only benefit public spaces, but also contribute towards sustainability which enhances the images of the company and its ventures. A location that is most suitable for the new business venture is outdoor open public spaces such as parks, plazas and spaces.

Designing and producing a new seating arrangement with sustainable features with the use of eco-friendly materials such as recycled concrete, wood and recycled aluminium will help with the proposal for an innovative design solution which will help advance Eaststyle’s export potential and spark new interests in local markets.




From Pen to CAD 
Zolar is a solution that provides users with shading from the sun/rain that is modular, which also features solar panels which power charging stations for the inhabitant’s devices. This heat mitigation solution will be comprised of three materials, sustainable concrete, recycled wood and also recycled aluminium.






Concept

Sustainability is also prevalent throughout the use of solar panels to power the charging station. This product fulfils a gap in the market in regards to a domestic Australian furniture company who is interested in establishing and exposing the company into new endeavours into outdoor open furniture which will be incorporated into public spaces.
