Condensing units, typically viewed as industrial assets, are often hidden away in the least visible corners of buildings, concealed by wire mesh or other materials. These units are typically placed outdoors, fulfilling a functional need while being overlooked from a design perspective. However, with a well-organized and thoughtful design approach, we’ve successfully redefined the perception of the condensing unit, transforming it from a utilitarian industrial fixture into an aesthetically appealing and functional product.
In close collaboration with Emerson, we embarked on a design journey to elevate the condensing unit, ensuring it met the high technological standards required for industrial applications while simultaneously enhancing its visual appeal. The goal was to take a component that was typically hidden from view and transform it into a product that integrates seamlessly into both its environment and the overall design of the building.
We carefully defined the parameters of the project to meet Emerson’s specific technological needs, ensuring that the condensing unit would function optimally while also embracing modern design principles. The new generation of Emerson’s condensing unit is not just an industrial necessity but a carefully considered object that reflects both form and functionality.
Through this design process, we changed the way users perceive condensing units. Instead of seeing them as cumbersome, industrial items, the redesigned unit now appears as a thoughtfully designed object that enhances the space it occupies. It is a solution that combines high performance with elegance, ensuring maximum productivity without sacrificing aesthetic value.
The outcome of this discreet yet impactful design transformation is a condensing unit that not only meets the technical requirements of the industry but also elevates the user experience. The redesigned Emerson condensing unit stands as a testament to the power of thoughtful design, proving that even industrial assets can be transformed into beautiful, functional products.
