What the world needs is a little nudge
We're about sensations, especially tactile ones. All of our products are designed to provide tactile sensations from the soft and rubbery silicone to the hard and smooth stainless and titanium.
We find that tactile sensations have gone overlooked in the computer era -- dominated by sound and graphics -- so we strive to enhance that property. We often aim to create objects that are not only visually pleasing but also engaging to touch. The use of different textures, materials, and shapes can create unique tactile experiences that enhance the user's interaction with the object.
Tactile sensations involve the perception of physical stimuli such as pressure, vibration, temperature, texture, and pain. The sense of touch plays an important role in our daily lives and influences our perception of the world around us.
The experience of touch can elicit a range of emotions and experiences. For example, the feeling of soft fabric can evoke feelings of comfort and relaxation, while rough textures can evoke feelings of discomfort or irritation. The sensation of heat or cold can elicit different emotional responses, such as warmth and comfort or discomfort and pain.
The importance of tactile sensations extends beyond our physical comfort and into our emotional wellbeing. Studies have shown that physical touch, such as hugging or holding hands, can promote feelings of social connection and reduce stress levels. Additionally, tactile experiences can enhance our memory and learning abilities, as touch can help us form stronger connections between experiences and emotions.
Overall, tactile sensations are an important aspect of our sensory experiences, influencing our emotional wellbeing, memory, and perception of the world around us.
