Fluid Forms: New Design Interface

12.05.2009, written by Ritchie Blogfried Pettauer, No Comments

When Wal­ter Ben­jamin wrote his famous essay on tech­ni­cal repro­duc­tion of art pieces, he couldn’t have antic­i­pated a trend that is cur­rently redefin­ing the rela­tion­ship between designer and con­sumer. Unique prod­ucts, designed specif­i­cally to the users wishes, are going to replace ready-made prod­ucts of every­day life. Sounds too the­o­ret­i­cal? Just think of T-shirts: online-retailers like Spread­shirt made sin­gle unique prints avail­able at a rea­son­able price and they became extremely pop­u­lar in no time. Fluid Forms is tak­ing the whole con­cept of unique design to a new level — this week, the com­pany launched their new design interface.

There’s an intro video on my Ger­man blog, but unfor­tu­nately it’s only avail­able in Ger­man yet. But luck­ily, the mak­ers of fluid forms run an in-depth blog on unique and gen­er­a­tive designs which is a must-read for every­one who wants to be up to date on the cur­rent tran­si­tion from fixed to fluid design forms. I really like the usabil­ity of the new inter­face — check it out at fluidforms.com: to try the edi­tor, just chose a prod­uct and then select “start”.
