Work presentedOriginal team presentation and product concept. The deck’s questionnaire and field-test assertions are not independently substantiated; no launch is established.
Assignment & brand
The starting point.
The retained brief names Speedo and asks how the swimming brand could help bring greater inclusion to pools across the United States. The brief specifies teams of two; Anton and Lisa are credited on the execution deck.
Insight & approach
The thought behind it.
The proposal explores the relationship between fit, color and a person’s sense of belonging. It asks how product design and communication could acknowledge a wider range of bodies and skin tones. Statements about questionnaires and field tests in the original concept deck are not supported by retained primary-research materials, so they are not presented as completed research here.
Concept & execution
How it takes shape.
The deck outlines personalized swimwear, a website for size and color selection, an awareness campaign and a proposed social contribution. Some early creative routes use provocative humor and stereotypes; the presented case focuses on the brief, personalization concept and proposed delivery plan. Product development, technical simulations and focus groups are described as planned activities.
Development / The thinking in motion
Turning an inclusion brief into a personal fit
The brief asked how Speedo could make swimming more inclusive. Anton and Lisa explored that question through differences in body shape and skin tone.
Connect the product to the buying experience
The response pairs a proposed broader fit and colour range with a configurable website. Size guidance and skin-tone recommendations carry the inclusion idea into the point of purchase.
Give the message a distinct tone
The deck proposes a humorous manifesto and links product choice to wider swimming awareness. Fit studies, simulations and production plans describe work the proposal would require; the retained materials do not demonstrate that those tests or production were completed.
