The Hövding airbag helmet is known for being a stylish alternative to a regular bicycle helmet and is classified the safest protective headgear in the world for cyclists. We created two design solutions, each including two models, all inspired by rich bike cultural European cities. The first design solution including âCopenhagenâ and âFerreraâ is made for users that wants their helmet discreet and soft. The discretion is especially implemented in the reflex pattern placement, that is visible and increases road safety at nightfall, yet barely noticeable in daylight. By hiding the helmet electronics under an elegant fold, a smooth scarf-inspired look is achieved.Â

The second design solution including âAmsterdamâ and âBerlinâ, is based on the idea to simplify and minimise material use. The helmet electronics is partly showing through the cover and by lifting the reflex tape one can easily access the usb outlet when charging.Â

The later mentioned two models are the more expressive and bolder alternatives. Amsterdam has a customised printed pattern that fades from white to black, and the helmet is visually discreet from a front view while more prominent from a rear view. âBerlinâ is the most sporty and least discreet cover. The entire shell reflects in the dark and a large text inside saying âAirbagâ, truly reinforces the message to a cocky maximum. ââ

Packaging is an important value carrier for the consumerâs overall experience of a product. For the company, it is an identity piece crucial for reliable deliveries, logistics and product quality. Frequently, packaging design involves specific customised solutions with complex requirements. Thatâs where our experienced packaging design experts come in as great assets. Â

We helped Hövding to refine a packaging concept for the second generation of invisible bicycle helmets. The playful yet modern packaging consists of a black wedge shaped box, which together with the yellow see-through cube made it to stores around Europe and Japan.
