Lauri Hirvesaar, Cleveron’s Design Lead and the driving force behind the design of Cleveron 402, shared his enthusiasm about the nomination and highlighted the importance of design thinking. “As a designer, I aim to identify what needs to be designed and whether I’m solving a problem before the design process begins.” He stresses the importance of considering the customer journey and usability in product creation. “The console of Cleveron 402, serving as the primary touchpoint for customers, is designed to be user-friendly and visually distinctive. We have received feedback from our customers that one reason they chose Cleveron 402 for their click-and-collect automation is its appealing aesthetics.”
