Speculative Redesign

Date

Feb 2025

Location

This project was completed as part of the Circular by Design MA through the National College of Art and Design in Dublin, Ireland

Project type

Speculative Redesign with Circular design principles

Prototype

This project focused on identifying key intervention points in AirPod’s design to enable a more circular approach. It highlighted the planned obsolescence stemming from adhesive-sealed ABS plastic casings that encase the lithium-ion batteries, making replacement difficult. The three redesign concepts address user replacement behavior, producer-driven obsolescence, and social influences.
