Abstract

In Malaysia, fire cases are caused by many factors. The lack of user’s awareness towards the existence of fire extinguisher has been identified as one of the causing factors. This is due to the poor product appearance and non-user friendly. In addressing this issue, the designer conducted surveys and observation on users’ understanding towards design appearance and function of the existing fire extinguisher. Through the analysis and design development process, the designer has successfully created a new external outlook for the fire extinguisher which emphasizes on aesthetic and function. Portraying an impressive styling, the new fire extinguisher model fulfills the aesthetic and functional aspects of design.
