BA Product Design
Zaki Razak
With a diverse skill set across product design, user experience, and design research, I've worked on various projects from developing rapid concept ideas to proof-of-concept models. Collaborating with multidisciplinary teams and working closely with clients, I love making aesthetically and highly functional solutions, forming a well-rounded, user-centred design approach.
Structra
'Structra' is a compact, modular trolley that reimagines how vital signs and point-of-care testing (POCT) are delivered in NHS wards. Designed through extensive user feedback, 'Structra' combines the functionality of both VSM and POCT systems while eliminating the need for cumbersome laptops or personal smartphones. A magnetised tablet replaces scattered tools by acting as a central recording unit, uploading all vital readings wirelessly via Bluetooth and simplifying workflow with portable, error-reducing digital input. The tablet can also be used to scan patients' barcodes, photograph written notes, replace paper records, improve accessibility, and prevent errors caused by poor handwriting. Its adjustable compartments, rotating tray, and modular IO ports ensure adaptability across wards and suit different preferences.
Key features include dedicated blood pressure cuff holsters, cable hangers, and customisable sensor holders, promoting faster workflow, ease of maintenance, and reduced cross-contamination. The wireless charging dock powers an integrated modular battery pack, encouraging staff to return the trolley and reinforcing proper use habits. 'Structra' delivers a future-ready, affordable, and efficient alternative to high-cost systems, offering a scalable, human-centred solution for the evolving needs of NHS care environments.
Bina
The 'bina.' is a modular lighting system and desk accessory that reimagines how users interact with task lighting in modern workspaces. Thoughtfully engineered to combine versatility, sustainability, and refined industrial aesthetics, 'bina.' is constructed from recycled aluminium extrusions and 3d-printed internal components. Its modular design allows the user to stack units vertically, either to achieve a preferred height or to add additional lighting modules, making it highly adaptable to individual tasks and spatial setups.
The light's swivelling head effortlessly transitions between direct, focused illumination for precision work and a downward-angled ambient glow for softer, relaxed settings. Whether used as a single-unit task lamp or a stacked multi-light fixture, Bina is designed to grow with the user's evolving needs.
Inspired by a clean, utilitarian industrial design language, the system emphasises long-term usability. Every component is designed to be disassembled, replaced, or upgraded, promoting reuse, repair, and future expansion. The 'bina.' isn't just a lamp - it's a sustainable desktop ecosystem that reflects a commitment to circular design and smarter, more intentional product development.
