“We’re at the moment designing customized 3D ergonomic iPhone circumstances and bathroom seats” might learn like a random phrase salad spat out by the AI-powered ChatGPT, but it surely’s the actually unusual descriptor that greets guests at Bailey Hikawa’s website devoted to the disparate class of objects. As loopy as which will appear, the designs themselves are much more surreal…

The self-taught industrial designer takes a sculptural strategy to designing iPhone circumstances like no different. Far past. How else would one Ishi iPhone case in Lil’ Shrimp as something however a hefty gummy bear who appears to have loved sipping a shrimp cocktail (or spaghetti) earlier than melting right into a barely amorphous blob harking back to colourful indoor climbing wall grips? We are able to think about that Matthew Barney can be fairly jealous of those designs.

Or how concerning the Geta telephone case in marigolda big vented again design that works like a terribly agency grip, telephone stand, maybe probably the most protecting case we have ever seen… and a stress level therapeutic massage software?

“Wave” in Japanese, the softly waved edges of the Nami telephone case permit fingers to slip into each groove for a safe grip, whereas additionally offering simple help.

My private favourite is the Nami telephone case in Onyx, a customized wave-grip case and amusingly Hikawa’s “slimmest telephone case but!” Not fairly refined, however in comparison with this eye-catching design, virtually beneath the radar.
