Congratulations to the team at Polyera on the announcement of their first product, the Wove Band.
We’ve been working with the team at Polyera for the past year to help build the Wove brand, and explore the UI design language for their unique product. That’s all we can say for now.
Find out more at www.wove.com and apply for a free prototype in September.
Last week we filled a room at Letterform Archive for Tom Crabtree’s salon talk, Color as Character.
Surrounded by a chromatic array of artifacts pulled from the Archive’s collection, Tom traced a path from early sources of inspiration to the identities we create today, with color as the main character throughout. Along the way: a rainbow sweater from childhood, fluorescent screen prints from college, and a kaleidoscopic mix of historical influences, including David Hockney, Eduardo Paolozzi, Piet Zwart, Otl Aicher, and Wim Crouwel.
The evening offered a personal look at Tom’s relationship with color, and the role it continues to play in shaping the way we design at Manual.
Thanks to everyone who came out, and to our friends and neighbors at Letterform Archive for hosting, especially Stephen and Angie.
