Our work

Real Problems.Real Constraints.Products That Made It to Market.

An editorial look at the problems we solve — not a product catalog. Every story starts with the question that made the work necessary.

01 / Case studies

Every project started with a question.

Detailed proof, not a product grid — the problem, the constraint, and what made it to market.

LUXE PLUS — Beauty Device

CASE · 01 — CONCEPT VALIDATION

Adding a second step to a best-seller without losing what customers loved

One bristle size couldn't clean a whole face. We wrote our own bristle specification, zoned the brush head and added ultrasonic infusion, keeping the wooden finish customers loved.

Microdermabrasion Device — Beauty Device

CASE · 11 — CONCEPT VALIDATION

Breaking out of a market where every device looks the same

My Pod — Sexual Wellness Device

CASE · 12 — DESIGN REALIZATION

Designing an adult toy you don't have to hide

Adult toys are still awkward to leave out, and hard to keep clean. We designed My Pod for CalExotics like everyday tech: a slim vibrator that docks in a case that charges it and sanitizes it with UV-C light.

My Pod Enhancer Ring — Sexual Wellness Device

CASE · 13 — DESIGN REALIZATION

Designing an intimate wearable discreet enough for daily life

Most adult toys look too erotic to carry around. For the second My Pod product, we designed a ring and a palm-sized case that charges and sanitizes it, then tested ring sizes and UV-C intensity with working mock-ups.
