ABB is a global leader in power and automation technologies. ABB asked Alfred van Elk industrial design to design a new range of control boxes for the European market. The boxes are used for the control and service of the electrical installation in the house and take care of distribution of electricity. The range comes in four versions that can be mutually connected and can be provided with or without a door.
In order to match the products’ visual life span with the - long - technical life span, (visual) durability was one of the main design starting points.
