Testing new Ideas

The project

Project overview

Made Evident is a hands-on product line of flat-packed, minimalistic metal stands for headphones and gaming controllers, designed for customers to fold and assemble themselves.

As the creator, I developed the concept, refined the design through CAD and prototyping, and collaborated with manufacturers to balance strength and flexibility for easy hand-folding. The venture, born from a personal experiment in metalworking, has evolved into a growing business with positive customer feedback.
