This case study is pretty light on details, but I’m including it because when I first saw the product—a designey tool set aimed at consumers, not tradespeople—I was curious as to who designed it. The answer is: Industrial design firm Doris Dev. Here’s what they had to say about the project:
Ultra-organized storage solution built to last
Character is a brand dedicated to creating spaces you love. Designed for everyone—from DIY enthusiasts to casual home improvers—Character offers essential tools, easy-to-follow education, expert support, and a curated selection of premium hardware. With Character, personalizing your space is seamless.
The Character Toolbox is made to be a home staple, not hidden away. It combines modern aesthetics with ample storage, allowing your tool collection to grow effortlessly.
Engineered for Durability and Smooth Accessibility
The Doris Dev team began the process by conducting a full engineering teardown of the designs to understand the product architecture in order to find an appropriate partner to execute on a build out of the toolbox.
Built to Last with Precision in Every Detail
The Character Toolbox is built with precision and durability at its core, using high-quality materials designed to withstand daily demands. Its sleek, modern aesthetic is achieved without compromising structural integrity, ensuring a robust and reliable product. Advanced manufacturing techniques and meticulous craftsmanship create a toolbox that seamlessly combines strength, functionality, and style.
