Final samples arrived in TU. Product development 100% complete.

Package design doing. Supplier to sample the packaging now.

Supplier has only our old Natural Oak colour and will send sample. Michele to assess, but it’s not great.

Deep etched ready, team check wiring and start on Customer/showroom documentation.

Costings received, will run past Damien this week.

WINTER- air freight for flock would be required- and stock for immediate release?

BARSTOOL

1st batch of FLOCK on track for target date. 2 per store.

Website/documentation complete. Pricing is underway, no tooling involved so if pricing is too high for customers, negligible loss.

SOLAIR ALU POCKET Accessory (with shade/turn dial shape)

ACCESSORY

ongoing

Samples received from supplier for review - review sent and feedback received, they will implement updates, new sample underway.

Only black only is suitable for deep etch as silver is unlikely to be ready in time. Deep etch team can manage with this as long as they have a silver swatch to use for photoshop.

Package design done- in sampling with supplier.

Not suitable to add light colour update at this late stage. Looking to see if the supplier has an option to change from ‘cool to warm’ light and can’t implement possibly integrate with Home Automation Systems (speak with Tony on DNC on Cloud)

LIGHTING

ongoing

Waiting on complete sample to sent to TU.

Deep Etch /lifestyle shoot has been scheduled. Tentatively booked for Late March. Product arriving this week.

CGI is potentially an option but Kirsty to confirm - not required at this stage.

New risk- the raising mechanism needs to be designed by Infinite Lux- costing and timeline to be released and assessed.

Consider for Good design awards entry- risk of adjustable height mech not being completed on time.

WINTER- airfreight required for flock most likely.

DK feedback was very positive and greatly appreciated. 2nd prototype starting this week for DK request to eclipse from the base. Tooling will be costly but will prototype anyway.

LUNA MESH BARSTOOL & COUNTER STOOL

OUTDOOR

BAR STOOL: Sample reviewed by CW.

The tooling done on the stool is incorrect, this needs to be addressed with GL & fabricator. A whole new seat form has been developed with updates- prototyping request with soft tool (limited use). Find out info on pricing and timing of soft tool- Mina.

COUNTER STOOL: Mina has complete engineering DWG. Seat pad needs to be re-considered- after sample off soft tool comes back successful.

Timing issues, getting closer to missing flock date if GL doesn’t apply some resources to this range. Mina will remind the team this week so they can be more likely to see sample on GL trip.

HERITAGE FIX TBL

DINING

FLOCK underway. AW and AO timber sourced. Colour staining to be redone with GL QC present. Balance of FLOCK to be done by Cecco ETA June/July.

Cecco has updated the sample due 10th March not even be 1800mm, but smaller. Will have to await the

XMB sample- Edge treatment is not the waterfall end as designers wanted, but we can still make the tables like, DK won’t mind. Photography is different though and possibly upcoming other suppliers table. Legs all look different and not followed the drawings. Hand sanded finishes it looks. Second time sample hasn’t been to drawing. Thicker veneer top which is likely to crack with heat.

Rework from XMB was not up to standard, the factory is unlikely to be able to produce these tables.
