Iris AI Assistant Device designed by Formeta Design for smart homes

IRIS 4.0

AI Assistant Device Concept

Client: Formeta Vision. Status: Concept study.

IRIS 4.0 is a smart home assistant concept that explores placing a connected device on the ceiling. The elevated position keeps the unit clear of objects on tables and shelves while bringing sound, lighting and home control into a central location.

A fabric-covered enclosure gives the cylindrical form a softer presence in the room. The proposal investigates spatial sound and ambient lighting as part of the same object, rather than separate devices occupying different surfaces.

IRIS is a product design exploration into the form and position of emerging home technology. Its capabilities describe a concept direction, not a released consumer specification.
