Design goals
In a 48-hour design sprint, our team's objective was to integrate a camping stove for OXO that fills a gap in their camping product line while staying true to the brand's design language. The challenge required quick research and analysis of OXO's existing product offerings, focusing on their signature blend of functionality, ergonomic design, and clean aesthetics.

Gap in camping product line
While OXO offers a wide range of products for cooking while camping, one significant gap is the lack of a portable camp stove designed for family use. Current offerings cater to cooking accessories but don’t provide a convenient solution for families who need a reliable stove for campsite meals. Our design aims to fill this gap by creating a portable, easy-to-use camp stove that blends functionality with OXO's signature user-friendly design.

Understanding OXO camping line design language
To ensure our camp stove design would seamlessly integrate into
OXO’s existing camping line, we studied the brand’s design language.
We analyzed their use of clean, simple forms, ergonomic features, and practical functionality.

CAD Iterations
Using Fusion 360, we developed CAD iterations of the OXO camp stove to refine its form and functionality. During this stage of design we had a focus on how the user would pick up this stove for best transportation well it is still hot.
