Design Motivation
Intended product functions and purposes flow into formalized product designs by force and rigor in big business. Our head designer/engineer has decades of this type of experience. Moving out from underneath those financial and marketing pressures has allowed an organic morphing of our product designs.
Consistently we’ve seen a more natural pattern occur. With the changing of seasons there has been a renewed creativity in us. A torrent of new product concepts come from each major shift in the weather and nature around us. As the first weeks pass a new season sets in and ideas get forged into prototypes. Many ideas fall out early on. As the season sets in, prototypes become models that we personally desire for our own office and living spaces. At this point rigor and construction quality rule the design.
Looking back at the time periods that our products had come about - it is clear that 3 major seasonal changes correlate. Spring's ending of Winter, Summer into Fall, and Winter cold setting in. The ideas have come naturally and without effort through these shifts. But as all work goes, formalizing the forms into salable items requires consistency over inspiration.
