Ideation

Napkins, notepads, and printer paper. Our work in ideation brings everything we’ve learned through extensive research into sketched early concepts. Moving quickly and getting our first ideas down on paper allows us to begin combining concepts, offering a first glance at innovative answers to our challenges.

Concept Development

After incorporating client feedback, we begin to piece concepts together with feasibility and packaging models. Concept development brings in our research, positioning, and early ideation concepts into functional forms we can lay into our overall package, offering an initial image of how our environment will look and function.

Engineer + Build

Picking up where concept development left off, we move into engineering and b-side detailing. We show ranges of movement using kinematics, and package any mechanical features attractively. In build, we work closely with tested and proven build resources to deliver high-end, functional properties. These properties are leveraged by advanced groups and marketing teams to introduce clients to the future of development.

Rendering + Marketing

Content creation for marketing teams is a Fredricks Design specialty. Our designers and engineers often create renderings and animations that share advanced projects in development, or function as web and marketing campaign content. We also leverage our rendering capabilities to help clients select material, color, and finish, swiftly and effectively.
