ONYX is a PC gaming console that combines the power and flexibility of PC components with the form factor of a home console. Designed to sit elegantly in an entertainment center while offering full upgradability.
The header video is a concept ad I made from start to finish: the 3D rendering and animation in KeyShot, and the original music, which I produced in Ableton.
Brand identity: The name and the form come from the same idea. The console's shape is based on a cleanly cut piece of black rock, like onyx. The palette is black and grey with green, borrowed from the Razer color scheme, and an RGB lighting effect gives the brand its rainbow glow.
Packaging: The console ships in a simple, clean box that carries the Onyx identity.
Engineering: I built a working prototype of the Onyx by 3D printing the parts and fitting them around off-the-shelf PC components. That meant modeling custom internal mounts for each component so everything fit, and the finished console runs as a small form factor PC.
This was a school project. The packaging and renders show Razer branding, and Razer is a registered trademark of Razer Inc. This project has no affiliation with Razer and is meant only as a student concept.
