Rimowa Artifacts

Finding the balance between precision and adaptability. Between committing to a decision and staying open to what the environment reveals. That tension is where new perspectives emerge.

We worked with Nuova to transform early-stage ideas and prototypes into haptic digital objects within a virtual reality environment. Rough sketches and raw material samples became tangible, explorable things. You could hold them, rotate them, test them against reality before anything was manufactured.

The process collapsed the gap between concept and object. Designs could be refined and validated in real time, iterated on the spot, and judged not as flat renderings but as physical forms that behave like the real thing.
