Why Dial
The dial simplifies interaction by bringing multiple controls into a single tactile interface. Instead of navigating through several buttons or touch inputs, users can rotate, press, and select through one intuitive control. This makes adjustments quicker, more direct, and easier to understand while keeping the cooktop visually clean and minimal.
Design can not exist in isolation, its needs context, stakeholders, end to end cycle, and everything else in the system to thrive.
Given below is a journey map of the plastic waste generated everyday by the people of India.
CMF
HALO’s CMF combines black glass, brushed anodized aluminium, and soft silicone to create a refined yet tactile product experience. The glossy glass surface gives the cooktop a clean, seamless appearance, while the warm metallic body adds a premium character. The silicone dial introduces grip, comfort, and a softer point of interaction.

Assembly
The internal layout was planned to keep the cooktop compact while maintaining clear separation between the heating, cooling, control, and interface components. The heating coil sits centrally below the cooking zone, supported by the motherboard, motor, and exhaust fan system, while the dial assembly is positioned independently for accessible interaction and efficient assembly.
