Cube Satellite
In the search for constant inspiration & evolution in my creative practices, I modeled a Cube Satellite (CubeSat) as a side project. CubeSats are miniature satellites commonly used in low Earth orbit. The small size and weight reduce cost to build, launch, and operate.

Fay 01 has the same aluminum finish, simplicity, and weighted feel in your hand like a MacBook Pro. In the process I gave life to an evolved set of design principles that guided the aesthetics and product experience to be purposeful, bold, and passionate. I hope you enjoy the design.
