Hi everyone!
My partner Mitsuru and I would like to share the project we created for the *Nothing Phone 3A Community Edition.
Our starting point was the film 2001: a space odyssey. We were inspired by the bold, futuristic aesthetic that Stanley Kubrick aimed to portray, combining this reference with the space age movement — a strong presence in the 1960s, when optimism about technological advancements heavily influenced all areas of art and design.
From there, we developed a concept that engages with retrofuturism, reinterpreting that imagination through a fresh perspective. visual elements from the 1960s remain timeless, and we wanted to capture that spirit in a device that is elegant, playful, and technologically innovative all at once.
Our idea is an interactive phone that responds to the user’s touch through a thermochromic finish. temperature changes trigger a visual transformation on the device, enhancing the sensory experience and embodying the idea of metamorphosis — a future that adapts, shifts, and reacts.

we hope you enjoy our work
