This was my first ever product design ideation. I created this to get into the Product Design program at Malmö University. The assignment was to create something that invites movement into a passive lifestyle.

After several days of intense work I created ChargingShelf, a product that builds on classic wireless chargers. But observing those chargers reveals that they always include a cable to extend the charging station to example a bedside table or desk.

My design eliminates the table and keeps the phone grounded to the position of the power outlet. In doing so the user is forced to establish better habits. When the user goes to bed they leave their phone behind at the Charging-Shelf, thus creating the need for immediate movement in the morning for collecting their phone. At night it also sets a healthier standard for screen time usage before bed leaving the user relaxed and set up for deep sleep.

This was my first ever project and holds a special place in my heart since it got me in to my dream education.
