Exporter 2 Radio
A hand-crafted digital illustration of the Exporter 2 Radio, exploring depth, shadow, and realism in Figma.
About the Device
The Exporter 2 Radio is a portable radio designed by Dieter Rams for Braun, featuring a distinctive circular dial and minimalist controls. It's a celebrated example of functional, user-centered design.
Case Study
This digital illustration was created in Figma as a study in shadows, depth, and angles, aiming to capture the realism and tactile feel of the original device. The process was entirely manual, focusing on understanding how light interacts with surfaces and how to translate physical objects into digital form.
The project is open source—anyone can download, learn from, and use these illustrations from the Figma Community file. If you find it useful, please like and show some love!
