Industrial Design
From Ideas to Reality
Trig® is a multi-talented innovation group that excels at many facets of the design and innovation spectrum, and we aren’t bashful about saying that Industrial Design stirs our creative emotions at a deeper level than most. In fact, many of our other service offerings, while potent on their own, were born and raised to enhance and streamline our product design capabilities.

Great product design doesn’t just happen with a sudden idea and a pen that brings it into reality. We believe it takes a thorough understanding of management objectives, consumer desires, and the competitive landscape, all revealed through intelligent research. This is the foundation on which smart solutions – and successful products - are created. But all the research and insight in the world is nothing without execution. Great product design also requires the sweat, intuition, and skill to perform the alchemy of turning great ideas into tangible products.
Idea Exploration - The Sweat
For Trig®, execution means digging deep. Through a broad exploration of possibilities, we isolate the concepts that will make successful solutions, and ensure that no worthy idea is left on the table. We also supercharge this stage in the process, when applicable, with our ideation services.

Concept Refinement - The Intuition
Taking the best ideas from exploration stage, Trig® fuses and optimizes them to form the blueprint for the “big picture.” Concept refinement is where the magic happens. Driven by our own design instincts, open feedback from clients, and rigorous internal critiques, Trig® delivers solutions that are smart, relevant, and when called for, drop-dead gorgeous.
Design Execution - The Skill
Trig® is armed and ready to take concepts to the next level of development. Whether our clients need drool-worthy digital renderings for investor meetings, a functional prototype for user research, or fully production-ready CAD for manufacture, Trig® has the knowledge and skill to deliver breathtaking results.
It is through our ID work that one can see that design is not simply a living for us, but a way of life. With rigorous training and education from the nation’s leading Industrial Design programs, over a decade of experience designing in a broad range of industries, and a relentless desire to deliver the absolute best to both clients and consumers, Ty Hagler and Patrick Murphy lead the team at Trig® Industrial Design.
