Envisioned as the first of several product lines, our lighting collection consists of nine unique handmade pieces. Each element is constructed out of cast concrete and bent tubular copper that change and age over time, revealing the subtle marks of its making.

Rise

Rise is a controller stand that is designed to improve one-handed game play by augmenting the existing Xbox one controller. Rise improves one-handed game play by keeping the controller stable on a flat surface, adjusting the tilt of the controller to suit the needs of the user, and finally by allowing the triggers to be activated while the users hand remains on top of the controller and within reach of the joysticks and other buttons.

Transform

The Goal of Transform is to improve the picnicking experience. It does this by organizing the user’s picnic equipment, providing an ergonomic means of transportation and then it transforms into a table to provide a comfortable dinning platform while at the picnic. Transform is designed to provide two people with an ideal picnicking experience from the moment they start to plan their picnic until they are on their way back home.

Uno

Uno is an intuitive and comfortable one-handed Xbox One controller that utilizes dynamic tilt sensitivity and familiar mouse-dragging movement to make gameplay easy and accessible for all. With a thorough set up interface, Uno is a highly accurate and personalized controller so veteran gamers can play competitively while novices can enjoy the complexity of three dimensional gaming. Through that interface, several different button maps and sensitivities can be set for varying gameplay, much like the Xbox Elite experience. Uno is physiologically considered so users of all sizes and strengths can easily reach and depress the buttons over long periods of gameplay without accidental actuations. This way, the gaming community is closer to achieving true inclusiveness without sacrificing anyone’s experience.
