Our expertise in <a href=\"https:\/\/outer-space.co\/industry\/sport-fitness\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sports product development<\/a> and design of fitness equipment, ensured the jump rope was engineered to be robust and easy to use.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">With the humble jump rope experiencing a resurgence throughout the mid-2010s, outerspace\u2019s brief was to create a jump rope that can be quickly, intuitively and easily adjusted within seconds, without the need for extra tools.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">The rope adjusts in small increments, with ten settings activated by simply pushing a button on the handle. It&#8217;s designed to reduce frustration, improve skipping technique, and eliminate twists and tangles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">The product is easily disassembled and maintained, and includes replaceable, interchangeable parts to ensure longevity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">With skipping rising in popularity in the years after the RapidFit jump rope was released, and more so during the COVID-19 pandemic, the release of the jump rope was well timed. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">It provides a low-cost, portable and effective way to workout for seasoned jump-ropers and beginners alike.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">The RapidFit jump rope won the Sport and Active Lifestyle prize in the 2018 Good Design Awards Australia. outerspace\u2019s designs, more broadly, have won numerous prizes in the same awards program, as well as awards from the Powerhouse Museum, Interior Design Excellence Awards (IDEA), Industrial Design Excellence, CES Innovation, Worldstar Global Packaging, Packaging Council and iF design awards.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">about Melbourne Now and the Design Wall<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">Representing thirty-five projects by twenty-five design studios, from industrial design consultancies to in-house research and design departments, the installation brings together designers, companies and brands, shaping the way we live today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">Design is always about delivering a degree of change. How and why new products are developed is driven by social dynamics, regulations and economic forces.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">Encoded with vast amounts of information, products and their designs are shaped by the conditions and systems of place and time, development and delivery are the result of process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">Offering insight into the factors influencing contemporary product design in Melbourne, the collection explores how everyday goods can embody the qualities of place and the values of those who live there.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">The four themes of the Design Wall &#8211; Change and Stability, Localities and Markets, Process and Proximity, and Creative Currents show how Melbourne\u2019s society, culture, geography and marketplace interacts to influence what is being designed there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">Representing new product models and product iterations, the homeware, healthcare, trade, sporting, furniture and lifestyle products in the Design Wall installation offer a view into how Melbourne designers, companies and brands are taking their products from concept to market and making valued contributions to the dynamic landscape of applied creativity in Melbourne.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ngv.vic.gov.au\/melbourne-now\/artists\/outerspace-design-for-rx-smart-gear\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\">Design Wall<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 100;\"> is an exhibition design collaboration between NGV and Hassell architects, Melbourne &#8211;
