fuseproject is excited to announce that #ElliQ 3.0 has won an iF Design Award! As the trusted design partner behind all three versions of ElliQ, we’re honored to contribute to a breakthrough that addresses real-world challenges. With 17.3 million older adults living alone—adding nearly $6.7 billion in annual Medicare costs—social isolation is a major concern. Our design helped achieve a 50% reduction in material use, making ElliQ more sustainable, and 95% of users report feeling less lonely. “Our focus has always been on designing the unseen details that create comfort, foster meaningful interactions, and build a genuine sense of connection.” — Dor Skuler, Founder and CEO of Intuition Robotics. This award is a testament to our commitment to human-centered design and innovation in senior care. Congrats to all the teams that worked so hard to bring #ElliQ to life.

Earlier this month, Yves Béhar, Founder and CEO of fuseproject, delivered the keynote at the BOAT International Media Superyacht Design Festival, exploring the future of sustainable innovation in yachting. His presentation highlighted Solsea, a groundbreaking hybrid-electric catamaran developed in partnership with Rossinavi. Launched last December at Design Miami, Solsea redefines what’s possible in yachting — seamlessly integrating futuristic design, cutting-edge technology, and a sustainability-first approach to create a vessel that is both stunning and responsible. On stage, Yves Béhar joined Federico Rossi, Chief Operating Officer at Rossinavi, for a conversation moderated by Glenn Adamson, delving into the design and innovation that brought Solsea to life. As yachting evolves, design and technology must lead the way—and this partnership is proof of what’s possible. What innovations are you most excited to see in the future of sustainable luxury? Let’s discuss. Watch the conversation at Design Miami https://lnkd.in/erKQved4 #design #innovation #luxury #sustainability #solar

Thank you, The Luxury of Ageing, for highlighting the transformative role of design in shaping the future of aging. The future of aging isn’t just about longevity—it’s about quality of life. For Qin Li, VP of Design at fuseproject, this means using design to empower independence, mobility, and connection. “There is vast potential for technology and design to create truly revolutionary innovations in this underserved space. Thoughtful, intuitive, and empowering solutions can reshape the aging experience for future generations.” At fuseproject, Qin has led the design of category-defining projects like #ElliQ, an AI companion that fosters connection and well-being for older adults, and the CIONIC Neural Sleeve, which restores mobility for individuals with neuromuscular conditions. Making a difference starts with a shift in mindset—seeing older adults not as a niche audience, but as a growing, dynamic group deserving of well-designed solutions. How can we push industries to invest in innovation for aging? Let’s discuss. Read more https://lnkd.in/e6_K66ee #design #innovation #Humancentereddesign #impact

A huge thank you to BOAT International Media for hosting Yves Béhar as this year’s Keynote Speaker at the Superyacht Festival. It was an incredible opportunity to share fuseproject’s perspective on design, sustainability, and innovation in yachting—and how we can shape a future that is both more sustainable and more enjoyable. Yves took the stage to discuss Solsea, a visionary 43-meter solar-electric catamaran designed in collaboration with Rossinavi. Drawing from his experience in product design, mobility, and sustainability, he explored how innovation in yachting can be redefined for a new generation of ocean lovers. “When you ask somebody, ‘What is your intent?’, you could say, ‘What is your design?’. ‘What is your plan?’ For me, design really accelerates the answers by remaining humanistic and by addressing the paradoxes of modern life.” — Yves Behar. Thank you to the entire BOAT International Media team for bringing together such an inspiring community. Looking forward to seeing how the future of yachting, design, and sustainability continues to evolve!

Thank you Fast Company for covering our work with The AES Corporation! At fuseproject, we believe design accelerates the adoption of new ideas. Our partnership with The AES Corporation on Maximo is a perfect example. Maximo is the world’s first AI-enabled solar robot that can install solar panels in half the time at half the cost, addressing a critical labor shortage and helping scale renewable energy faster than ever. Our team focused on seamless integration, scalability, and human-friendly design—ensuring Maximo not only enhances efficiency but also works alongside human teams as a trusted friend in the field. From its distinctive sine wave-inspired form (a nod to alternating current) to its built-in LED safety system, every detail was crafted to blend innovation with functionality. “The combination of vehicle and robotics—at the service of accelerating solar installation—is what excited us most about this project.” — Yves Béhar, Founder and CEO, fuseproject This is what happens when design, engineering, and sustainability come together to solve real-world challenges. Learn more about how Maximo is reshaping the solar industry. Read - The world needs more solar farms.
