-John Archibald Wheeler

Design is an activity that experiments with elements obtained by dynamism.

The fact that we must constantly adapt to constant updates of market, encourages us to cultivate new ideas.

Not only our industry, but also everyday life in general, requires constant adaptation, requiring the creation of new solutions.

Taking inspiration from a now common use and owned object as smartphone it is possible to note how in a short period of time a tool with the best capabilities, has been under rapid pressure not only at technological level but also aesthetic.

The innovations introduced generally arouse wonder and curiosity on the part of its users, but the emotion is quickly replaced by indifference. The feeling of novelty that man feels for something never seen lasts for a very short time, which is why the consumer changes his mood towards the good sinking into a sense of indifference. From this concept the new model is not limited to its singularity, but on the contrary, it makes it necessary to add secondary elements that raise the constant need to update the appearance of your object through small elements: accessories.

Covers, phone holder, selfie sticks and car stands have created a new market sector in which we designers have been able to create useful and lasting ideas.

Playing with materials, technology and figures, our studio has created multi-purpose products to meet the “need” for smartphone using 3D printing technologies, designing a multifunctional pen holder. The Totem, so called for the various forms available, and the Hedgehog are two of many examples of how our passion is involved in a dynamic and flexible spiral, guaranteeing us a continuous productivity of our minds.

The simplicity of our solutions encompasses great engineering and design skills, demonstrating how even a common object can be transformed into something innovative.

The evolution must not remain confined to the technologies but must also adapt to human and environmental respect.

We at Eros Angelini S.r.l. are constantly committed to following the circular economy model to develop and design solutions that aim for sustainability.

An example is the cutlery made in Mater-bi for the company Vicenza ECOZEMA. The product has managed to become a leader in the sector, to the point of being present at the 2010 London Olympics. Our studies have come to surprising results, especially about the analysis of the material that they are made of, as it is what really guarantees a strategy aimed at sustainability.

Our studio is committed to the concept of health, not only environmental but also human, which is why we are committed to personally contributing to make the world a better place.

3D printing is a powerful technology that can be used and possessed by everyone, letting them create different version of their object starting from their ideas.

In our studio can be found two 3D printing that are used to concretize thoughts that are still intangible.

Now we are going to tell you how!

These machines give not only intellectual advantages, but they create financial savings. The possibilities to see realized a piece of product or a project prototype, guarantee to customers and our team the opportunity to study in detail new upgrades and modifications before the definitive production of the good.

One fundamental step is to make optimized and functional files for the new addictive technologies, we learned this kind of skills trough the constancy use of them.

Another point to consider is about what addictive technologies choose and how to put it together to obtain the final prototype in order to be always nearer to the final product. Even if machines are of the last generation, human intervention is necessary “even with competence” to assemble, refinish and decor models.

It’s always more common to use these technologies to create pre-series or series products. The materials available on the market are numerous, in fact they differ to medical to technological products resistant to chemical agents.

3D printing is the realization of analysis made following the mind, idea, sketch, thinking process, design and engineering skills model.

Our aim is to maximise results using advanced technologies…this is design.

All of this supports our “starting by the end” philosophy, that made us proud of it. Environment is glad and thanks us confirming our green attitude.

Eros Angelini s.r.l. wants to share respect, passion, competence and uniqueness in every project. For us design is “above everything”.

Is it for real?

We of Eros Angelini s.r.l. studio, go further the aesthetic of our projects, we engage our abilities so that the final product will make the difference in its use to the consumer.

Every idea created by our minds or clients is developed in minimal detail to guarantee its final function and style.

Yes. Everything starts here!

With our skills we study the disposal process of final products, finding raw materials and the perfect production processing to simplifying it. We also assure the facilitation of the process pushing consumers to adopt green-attitude.

“After” mustn’t be considered the last step, instead, the final usage can be metaphorically related to the mythical figure of phoenix, she reborn from its ash, as the project gives the assumptions to relive from its raw materials.

The good designer is remembered not only for the style it differentiates him, but also for the mind who can abolish superficiality and borders to utility.

It was in this year that Eros Angelini took his first steps as a designer in a garage in Venice. The first sketches, the first customers…

The beginning of an activity that has accompanied us – literally – for a lifetime.

One of his first jobs was a professional blender, an object as useful as complex: already on that occasion Eros transformed an idea into a winning product.

Over time we have realized that in addition to being successful, the products designed by our Industrial Design Studio are also extremely long-lived: it frequently happens that we still see in use (and with high sales volumes!) products that we have designed 10, 15 or even 20 years ago.

This time we are facing a truly unique case: right that blender designed by Eros

more than 30 years ago was exposed in the SIRMAN stand during the SIGEP exhibition in Rimini!

Surprised (but not too much), Eros had a chat with Nereo Marzaro, who commissioned the product at that time, and still leads the company today together with his family.
A beautiful and cordial meeting, full of memories of the past and ideas for the future.
And in the middle – in the present – this blender “vintage 1993”, which regardless of the decades is still gaining success on the market.

Winning ideas and solid projects
for products with long-lasting success.
This is Eros Angelini!

Transfer the values that inspire your company to your products
it allows you to communicate them in a real and lasting way.

How to bring intangible and abstract elements into a concrete object?
Through Design it is possible to create a product reflecting the Company’s Values in its aesthetic, structural and functional characteristics.

For instance, a company giving attention to the person, and focusing on the weakest categories will create a product easily accessible and/or usable in the case of reduced motor skills, or similarly will be able to conceive it to be used even by parents with young children (developing shockproof, easily washable objects, etc.).

In this process it becomes essential to understand and share the company’s scale of values with the utmost accuracy, balancing creativity and engineering precision to generate objects in harmony with it.

You need transversal skills, longstanding experience, and mainly an innate ability to listen: exactly what our Industrial Design Studio has been putting at your disposal for 30 years.

Together with us, your products become
the first ambassador of your Company’s Values
at your Customers.

Reputation is a measure of how much people
gives importance to what we are and what we do,
and how they consider it when making decisions that affect us.

It goes without saying that Reputation is also very important in the professional sphere: in this case, the ‘others’ are your customers, your co-workers, your suppliers, your bank… Well, shortly, the ‘Stake holders’ of your company. It therefore becomes essential to get and maintain the best possible reputation with each stakeholder in your business.

How can you build a ‘Good’ Reputation?

First, it is important to clarify what is meant by ‘Good’:

• While it is certainly intuitive that any negative connotation should be avoided as far as possible, it is equally important that your professional Reputation (and that of your company) be ‘Consistent’ with both your real Capabilities to meet the needs of your interlocutors and the ethical and social Values that guide your actions;
• It is then necessary that your reputation is ‘True’, namely it faithfully reflects your Capabilities and Values: apart from any moral considerations (which in any case have their importance, as we have just seen), building a reputation that is not consistent with what you really are is more difficult (hence costly) and not long-lasting actually;
• In addition, it needs to be ‘Useful’, that is focused on those Capabilities and Values that actually bring value to your interlocutors (especially your customers!). If, for example, you are a lawyer, being recognised as an excellent cook is less important than knowing that you volunteer at a soup kitchen for the homeless: the first aspect makes little difference to your profession, while the second connotes you positively as a person who cares about the needs of others.

Building a good reputation is a bit like building a house: if what you have read so far is the “foundation” of your reputation, there are other elements that your ‘building site’ needs:

• You need a Project and a Plan: be clear about your Capabilities and Values – especially understand which ones are useful to your interlocutors – and define in detail how to convey them, and in how much time;
• You need a Method: your Reputation needs time and consistency to consolidate itself, and the very fact that you systematically look after it helps to improve it, making you perceived as reliable.
• You need Balance: when showing your Capabilities, you need both to be perceived as an ‘expert’ and to speak a comprehensible language, as well as when you describe the Values you believe in, it is important to present them as fixed points (as they are in reality), while showing willingness to dialogue and constructive confrontation.

On the web, this is extremely fast
and reaches all your interlocutors immediately.
You need specific skills and the ability to react quickly:
this is what we have been providing to our customers for 30 years.

In addition, the possibility of access to new technologies is a further incentive to work on your products, to improve the production and economic efficiency of your processes.

Therefore, it becomes essential to continuously improve the competitiveness of your products through the Style: in other words, you need to make the style of your products competitive: how do you do that?

To be competitive, you need a DEDICATED and CONSISTENT Style

Style is DEDICATED when it communicates “at a glance” the function that your product was designed for, and defines who will use it immediately: shapes and colours play a fundamental role in this phase, just think about the razors for shaving or depilation, or the toys for children.

Style is then CONSISTENT when it adapts to the available production structure to manufacture the product: it makes no sense designing and developing an object – even beautiful and functional – if producing it costs too much or if it requires disrupting existing structure, machinery and production equipment.

As well as a skilful and creative chef,
able to make the best of the ingredients at his disposal,
we define the aesthetics and functionality of your product
by comparing it with the potential of your production facilities.
This has been the way to work of our Industrial Design Studio for 30 years.

Sustainability needs to be made ‘competitive’: how can we do?

Sustainable Design (what we call ‘Designing from the End’) is the main tool that enables you to achieve this, guaranteeing advantages in both Sustainability and Competitiveness in different areas of your Production:

At Product level, the possibility of access to high-tech materials (now more accessible than the past, as well as the information to use them optimally) has a decisive impact:

• Through accurate structural calculations, it is possible to find the correct balance between structural strength and dimensioning of parts, optimising the consumption of raw materials: this leads to a reduction in costs keeping the same product performance;
• It reduces the differentiation of materials used, making purchasing management less costly and simplifying product dismantling/recycling at end-of-life;
• It enables to apply aesthetic finishes without surface treatments and/or differentiation of materials, reducing both production time/costs, and pollution from chemicals used for surface treatments.

At Process level:

• By optimising the use of equipment (moulds, dies, etc.), it is possible to produce more parts per production cycle, reducing industrial cost and energy consumption per unit of product;
• Simplifying the assembly of parts using quick-connect systems reduces the use of small fastening parts, reducing purchase/labour costs, and the energy consumption per unit of product.

At Logistics/Handling level:

• Improving the stackability of semi-finished and finished parts allows better utilisation of storage space in the warehouse, reducing costs of occupied space, as well as land and energy consumption in the department;
• Optimising palletisation for transport reduces the incidence of transport costs, and decreases polluting emissions.

The combination of these elements makes synergetic the Value of Sustainability and the Requirement of Competitiveness, making it more attractive for both your company and your customers.

High and transversal skills, teamwork, overall vision:
for years our Industrial Design Studio has been ‘Designing from the End’
sustainable and competitive products for the Success of your Company

Eros, how do you feel about 2023?
The last 12 months have been characterised by big changes, some simply unthinkable until recently. The scenarios we all got used to moving in have literally gone crazy, and in addition digitisation (and two years of pandemic) has generated a different way of acting: today we are in the world of ‘Non-Things’, we hardly touch any object anymore, but see it on the display of our devices. Yet, we must continue to ‘do’, indeed we must become better and better at creating real objects that will be purchased by the very people who live in the world of ‘Non-Things’.

It is a challenge that seems very demanding: how do you think you can overcome it?
There is certainly a solution, and perhaps it will surprise you: it is Sustainability!

Yes, it was indeed difficult to expect this answer: would you like to tell us more?
Well, just think that designing sustainably means creating more competitive products! Reducing the use of raw materials, decreasing energy consumption, and optimising internal and external logistics compresses costs and production times, thus increasing the company’s profitability, almost in an ‘accountancy’ way. What’s more, there is also another aspect: today a product is perceived as being of greater value precisely because it is sustainable, and those who buy it feel that they are playing a part in safeguarding our planet!

How do you plan to achieve this in concrete terms?
Look, for several years now we have been gearing all the services we offer our customers towards sustainable design: we call it ‘Designing from the end’.
This year we want to take it a step further: we want to draw up and apply a ‘Sustainability Report Card’ to our projects, where we analyse every single side of the product from the point of view of sustainability, and assign a score.
Of course, in addition to the ‘grades’ in terms of sustainability, we will also assess the elements of profitability: in this way, we will be able to show (and quantify) how through sustainability the return on investment is increased.

Only one aspect is missing at this point: how do you plan to convey this value to your ‘Customers’ Customers’? After all, they are the ones who will decide to buy….
If we want, the answer is simple: with Marketing, a service that we have particularly strengthened for our clients in recent times, making it increasingly integrated and synergic with design services.
Through our Strategic Consulting and Operations Management activities, we intend to convey these values integrally to our customers’ markets, with dedicated and customised communication actions.
In this way, we can easily get in touch with the world of non-things!

Clear ideas, defined objectives, strong determination:
Thant’s the Energy we want to put into play throughout year 2023!

In fact, Christmas gifts, in addition to underlining the “special” moment that you are about to experience, are a wonderful way to reinforce the relationship with your customers.

Just the fact of remembering them, dedicating time, energy (and economic resources too) to the gifts for them, is a sign of esteem that gives value to professional relationships beyond the technical and economic aspects.

A Christmas gift tells your customers how much they mean to you:
Is it possible to make it even more “special”?

The answer is certainly yes: there are two ways to give even more value to your Christmas gifts:

A personalized gift
On the market you can find a huge selection of gift items, many of them of excellent execution and of high value: on the other hand, anyone can decide to give them as a gift. Creating a unique object, which only you can give to your customers, transmits all the attention and accuracy you want to dedicate to them in an exclusive way

A consistent gift
Right thanks to the priceless value of personalized, creating it in a way that unequivocally recalls what you can do for your customers enhances your skills and makes your customers associate them to a pleasant moment.

This brings an emotion beyond the direct connection to the holidays: especially if you decide to make a lasting gift (even if only in part), it will remain as a memory over the time, always ready to tell your customers how much you thought about them during the holidays and what you are able to do for them every day.

For instance, this is the case of TOVOTEC, a metal carpentry that has been collaborating with our Industrial Design Studio for a long time, and which every year asks us to design a unique and unrepeatable gift, to be crafted through their machinery.

Thanks to our creativity and the technical skills that we provide to TOVOTEC, their customers have been able to create an authentic collection of unique objects, which constantly and clearly enhance the company’s technical skills. On this Christmas we have designed and created for them a delicious and funny reindeer, which serves as a support for the Christmas box.

Ideas, creativity, and transversal skills:
our ability helps you consolidate the relationship with your customers
highlighting the value of what you can do for them
