The principles of industrial product design mainly include the following aspects:

Functionality principle

- Basic function realization: The product must be able to meet the basic needs of users in actual use, such as the mobile phone must be able to make clear calls, surf the Internet, process information, etc.

- Stable and reliable performance: Under the specified conditions and time, the product must be able to stably perform its functions, just like the car engine must be able to operate stably under various road conditions and environments.

- Functional expansion: Consider the possible functional expansion needs of the product in the future and reserve space for product upgrades, such as smart watches can add new health monitoring functions through software upgrades.

Ease of use principle

- Convenient operation: The product operation process should be simple and clear to reduce the user's learning cost, such as the one-click operation of smart home appliances.

- Ergonomics: The size, shape, weight, etc. of the product should conform to the physiological structure and movement characteristics of the human body, such as the design of the tool handle that fits the hand.

- Easy maintenance: The structural design of the product should be convenient for users to perform daily maintenance and care, such as the use of modular design, which is convenient for disassembly and replacement of parts.

Aesthetic principles

- Beautiful shape: The shape, color, material, etc. of the product should be harmonious and unified, giving people a sense of beauty, such as the simple and smooth appearance design of Apple mobile phones.

- Unique style: It has a unique design style that can stand out from many products and reflect the brand characteristics, such as the unique shape and color matching of Dyson hair dryers.

- Coordination with the environment: The product should be able to coordinate with the surrounding environment in the use environment and not appear abrupt, such as the design of outdoor furniture should be integrated with the natural environment.

Economic principle

- Cost control: Under the premise of ensuring product quality and function, it is necessary to control production costs and reasonably select materials and processes, such as using cost-effective materials to replace expensive materials.

- Improved production efficiency: The design should be easy to manufacture, improve production efficiency, and reduce production cycles and costs, such as using standardized and universal component designs.

- Accurate market positioning: According to the target market and user needs, reasonably determine the product price to ensure that the product has market competitiveness and profit margins.

Innovation principle

- Technological innovation: Use new technologies, new materials, and new processes to improve product performance and quality, such as using new battery technology to improve the endurance of electronic products.

- Functional innovation: Develop new functions or optimize and upgrade existing functions to meet new user needs, such as adding face recognition functions to smart door locks.

- Form innovation: Innovate in the appearance, structure, packaging and other aspects of the product to bring a new experience to users, such as the innovative design of foldable mobile phones.

Sustainability principle

- Environmentally friendly material selection: Give priority to recyclable, degradable, non-toxic and harmless environmentally friendly materials to reduce pollution to the environment, such as the use of natural materials such as bamboo fiber and hemp fiber.

- Energy-saving design: Products should reduce energy consumption as much as possible during use, such as the design of energy-saving lamps and energy-saving home appliances.

- Product life extension: By optimizing the design and manufacturing process, the service life of the product can be improved and the pressure on the environment caused by product replacement can be reduced, such as the use of high-quality components and sturdy structural design.
