Patina is an award-winning industrial design practice led by ex-IDEO designer Chris Pearce. With a focus on function-centric products, Patina serves to evolve brands through breakout innovations that challenge convention.

Patina collaborates closely with clients’ in-house engineering teams, and handpicks tailored teams from its extensive creative network. Through this method, the practice can grow and shrink in size to suit more complex and multi-disciplinary projects.

Patinaは、元IDEOのデザイナー、クリス・ピアースが率いる東京を拠点とする工業デザイン事務所です。製品の機能性に注力し、Patinaは常識に囚われない革新的なイノベーションを通じてブランドを進化させます。クライアントの社内開発チームと密接に連携し、Patinaは必要に応じて広範なクリエイティブネットワークから厳選されたタレントでプロジェクトを補完します。この方法により、複雑で多分野にわたるプロジェクトに合わせて規模を拡大・縮小して対応することができます。
