What We Do
ORTHOGONAL THINKING + DIGITAL MANUFACTURING + HARD WORKING
The traditional approach to product design is a lumbering dinosaur. It accepts gross inefficiency as the norm and relies on brute force, bloated timelines and endless resources. We do things in a radical new way to provide actual game-changing solutions for a fraction of the cost.
3D Modeling
Computer-Aided Design / Computer-Aided Engineering is the tool for product design, all others pale in comparison. They are actually a whole ecosystem of tools and sub tools. Novice skill can be attained quickly but mastery takes decades. With well over 10,000 hours under our belt, dozens of certifications and a mindset of continual learning we go way beyond mere proficiency. 3D modeling is virtual prototyping and we harness that power for next level communication, analysis, speed and overall results in a way that few can.
Design
Customers expect well designed, high quality and beautiful products. Delivering on that expectation creates a virtuous cycle where value and trust are repaid through generosity and loyalty. Design is a metalskill based on dozens of foundational honed skills and talents. The household brands that are synonymous with design embrace talent and realize it is a precious resource, not a commodity. Design separates success from failure and ordinary from world-class, it also happens to be what we do best.
Manufacturing
Successful manufacturing is achieved through diverse partnerships that leverage expertise and equipment. The nature of supply chain logistics is to be suseptible to externalities and human factors, even for the most modern of operations. Balancing the impacts of the unforseeable to consistently deliver quality is a rare value proposition. To do this takes tactful strategy, artistic relationship building and deep knowledge.
Prototyping
Prototyping mastery blends ingenuity and modern craftsmanship. We leverage the latest in digital additive and subtractive manufacturing. We also utilize traditional, manual and time tested methods, whatever best suits the need. Design optimization is a process of itterative refinement, it is also a race against time and resources and prototyping excellence is the engine of success.Who We Are
