‘We first threw away all the sketches.’

The assignment was to design a housing that would be internationally suitable on all continents and would put Hitec Power Protection machines back on the map.

UPS systems are becoming increasingly larger and have to compete with battery systems. They are used in airports, hospitals, and modern data centers for a clean, guaranteed power supply.

The devices are highly intelligent; software monitors all the systems, but this is not visible. Also not visible is the large amount of energy stored by the rotating mass.

The first sketches have been made and…

The client said it was pretty good, but that didn’t satisfy us ☹

The further elaborations below also didn’t achieve the desired wow effect of the generic trend of dynamic and futuristic.

We got to work!

Well, then we’ll naturally present a more extreme design, showing the energy with light, like the E-tron effect. See the mood board.

The combination of the E-tron and UPS has resulted in a design with visualization of energy flows on the housing.

The final result can be seen in the image below.
