A New Icon in Electric Grooming
Supply approached Doris to design a premium electric shaver, a powered trimmer for a brand known for their luxury analogue shavers and blades. Taking into account Supply's history of craftsmanship and quality we set out to design an iconic and hyper-functional electric Trimmer.
Industrial Design
Inspired by Craftsmanship Shaped for Precision
Inspired by Supply's story and the ritual of shaving itself, we drew from a few key typologies; shavers as a tool and the act of sculpting. The trimmer is inspired by stone chisels, used to form rock and other hard matter. The multifaceted chisel is a beautiful tool that begs to be used with precision, it's instantly recognizable and tactile. Importantly, it's also an incredibly ergonomic shape that feels great in the hand in a variety of angles and positions. The facets add a tactile form-factor to the trimmer and they allow it to rest on the device's side when not in use.
Versatile Features and Thoughtful Design
The industrial design process for the Supply Trimmer was iterative, focused on achieving the ideal form and feel. We analyzed other trimmers to understand what works, creating dozens of models to test hand feel, shaving interaction, and refine its silhouette. Features include replaceable heads, an induction charging dock for a zen shaving ritual, a waterproof design, and an optional adjustable trimmer head.
The Results
Counterpart was launched in 2024 elevating the charging experience.
The Charger by Counterpart sets a new standard.
