Well, I made it just in time, a few minutes before the submissions closed, lets hope it actually made it and appears on the gallery (fingers crossed). Thought I’d share it here as well now that the submissions are closed.
Seeing, Breathing, Living.
Nothing and their use of living things as a constant element, and a part of their story that deserves to take form and what better opportunity for that to happen than through the Nothing Community. For this phone I took the nothing DNA through the glyph interface and paired it with the subtle use of material and material properties to breathe life into it.
Phone 2a is already bringing fresh eyes.
The design language of the products is extremely mechanical and technology which abstractly signifies a life but what is life without breathing.
Breath is shown through materiality. A multi layered back glass which creates a frosted scattering of light as the glyph interface lights up. Giving the look as if the phone is breathing against the glass panel and the breath is creating a fog.
I did not do apparent changes to the design or the geometry of phone 2(a) even though my iteration included that, but I chose not to go forward with it, rather just working subtly to physically bring out any story that is not being told by the product itself, yet.
Much Love!
