Dura Integrated Workshop System

red dot award: product design 2009

This Dura Integrated Workshop System is a uniform solution for all car services and repair. High-quality surfaces, the distinctly structured style and the ergonomic design of the individual components meet the demands of an efficient workplace system. Since all functions are limited to essential needs, they are self-explanatory. The system integrates tool storage, waste management and any necessary equipment for personal protection, such as dispensers for towels and tissues. Sockets and diagnostic monitors are accommodated, as are control boxes for car hoists and a decentralised fluid management. The design of this system was guided by the maxim that functionality is not only a question of solving technical problems, it is also a crucial matter of perception and use – technology and design are supposed to engage in mutual dialogue.
