Pairpoint: The Missing Link

By 2030 there will be 30 billion ‘connected’ devices. Their ability to connect to each other, however, is constrained by the brands, networks and ecosystems they belong to.

Fitbit Ace LTE: Because It's Fun

Fitbit Ace LTE is a new kids wearable brought to you by Google. It’s the first ever connected smartwatch designed to get kids off the couch and into the chicken-space-race (yeah, that’s a thing). With 4G LTE and a gazillion games, you’re always close to home, and never far from fun.

Google approached us to build a brand and design system around Ace LTE’s four core attributes – Bold, Playful, Weird and Loveable – that speaks to the zest of childhood and the dream of independence they long for.
