NOOKA's First Round Design is Revolutionary!
The collaboration between NOOKA and Karim Rashid aimed for a synergistic effect between "democratic design" and a "universal language." From this partnership emerged "Yogurt," NOOKA's first round design, crafted from soft, flexible polyurethane.
The display, which shows the hour in hexagonal digital graphics at the center and the minutes on the outer circle, is a contemporary and unique design characteristic of Karim Rashid.
The "Yogurt" features a sleep mode and 12/24 hour display options, and is available in six colors: blackberry, raspberry, blueberry, lime, plain (white), and non-fat (clear).
