A milestone

7 iterations

8/11/20241 min read

I have been working on designing an all-in-one pocketable sketching kit for a few months now. This is the 7th iteration of the design, and although I still have some enhancement ideas, I think it's time to take a break from refining the design and get back to actually using it for sketching.

There's no such thing as a perfect design, and I hope that by using this kit for a while and creating 100 sketches with it, I'll be able to gather some new ideas for a future version. Sometimes you just need to put a design into practice to uncover areas for improvement that you couldn't have anticipated through the design process alone.

I'm eager to start sketching with this latest version and see how it performs in real-world use. Pausing the design work for now will allow me to approach the next round of improvements with fresh insights from actually using the kit.
