Prototyping is an important step in our design process, it’s how we bring our ideas to life and make sure they’re ready for the real world. Through prototypes and testing, we see how people actually use our designs and can catch any issues early on. Scroll through for a peek into the behind the scenes of the prototyping phase for the OXO Rapid Brewer!

We’re proud to have played a part in making video accessible to everyone. Partnering with Pure Digital Technologies, we designed the Flip to be simple and easy to use—with one-touch operation and a built-in USB for effortless sharing. It may have been a pocket-sized camera, but it connected with millions and sparked a love for video-making in so many people. Here’s to the power of simple, purposeful design! Thank you Albert Shum
