We’re exhibiting at The Sensor Decade this week!

Sensors are all around us — measuring, enabling and connecting the physical and digital worlds. And it turns out, designing the products that house them is very much our kind of challenge!

We’re exhibiting on 3–4 June at Norway’s leading sensor conference. Come find us and have a chat about design, and to pick up one our fresh new notebooks!

We’re joining ⚽️💛

We may not be enough people to field a full team, but today we’re wearing our favourite football shirts and supporting the Norwegian Childhood Cancer Society to help children and young people with cancer – and the families around them.

Proud to be part of the bigger team fighting for a cause that truly matters. Huge respect to everyone taking part and contributing 💛

The mere thought of pest insects is enough to make most people’s skin crawl. When they move in, we want them gone — quickly and discreetly. Out of sight, out of mind.

When Silverfish was awarded DIP funding by to develop the next generation of poison-free pest traps, they brought us on board. For months, our little meeting room was converted into a test lab for our six-legged uninvited guests. 🪲

We did what we always do: take the user’s perspective. When your users are just a few millimetres tall, a tenth of a millimetre can mean the difference between a trap they walk into and one they walk around.

An incredibly rewarding project — and we can’t wait to see where it goes next!

Happy Easter! 🐣 This egg cup is part of Papp Fiction, one of our very first projects — an exploration of cardboard as a design material, completed back in 1999. They’ve come a long way since then and are now part of the permanent collection at the Norwegian National Museum in Oslo.

Hvem skal formgi fremtiden? Denne uken hadde vi gleden av å ta imot en klasse fra Valler videregående skole som fordyper seg i programfaget Design og arkitektur. Marius fortalte historien om hvordan K8 ble til og hva en industridesigner jobber med. Frida tok elevene gjennom studietiden på og hvilke utdanningsmuligheter som finnes i Norge for industridesignere. I en tid der de kreative fagene står under press, er det viktig å fremdeles så frø i neste generasjon designere.

Lykke til med både studier og utdanningsvalg videre – kanskje vi sees igjen om noen år?

Lifelong learning is a big part of being a designer – this week we spent an afternoon levelling up our electronics skills ⚡

Under the expert guidance of Daniel Eugene Lacey-McDermott, aka .credible , we went hands-on with the micro:bit and its sensors, then broke out the soldering irons to build our own interactive “Simon Says”-style game on a circuit board.

Fuller brains, emptier coffee cups, and a lot more confidence designing physical products with embedded electronics ✨
