Rinkak by Nendo
Coloured cables encircle the cases of these computer mice by Japanese designers Nendo.
Called Rinkak, the design for electronics company Elecom creates an outline round the product like a drawn line.
Photographs are by Hiroshi Iwasaki.
Here are some more details from Nendo:
We designed a computer mouse “rinkak” for a Japanese company ELECOM
“rinkak” design concept
In Japanese, rinkak refers to an object’s outline against its background.
The cable that snakes out from the computer becomes the rinkak of a mouse, like a quickly-sketched freehand drawing. The mouse becomes the background, and the cable - until now a supporting actor - takes to the main stage.
This product will be sold in Japan from end of June. And planning to sell Internationally soon.
