Shifting from recovering and insuring accidents to proactive prevention, Generali, a global leader in the insurance industry, called on us to co-design their first-ever physical product: AirSafe, a smart device monitoring the air quality in homes. Leveraging the power of IoT systems, we helped bridge the digital and physical realms to keep families safe, adding a dedicated app with an intuitive interface that changes color depending on the air quality to monitor CO, smoke, particles, gas leaks and more. Functioning also as an ambient light, its design was inspired by the twisting shape of the Generali headquarters in Milan.
Prototyping was an integral part of the process, allowing the Generali team to evaluate every single step of the process carefully with a real, tangible object.
