Edges


Edges is an online platform for experiments, essays and conversations existing at the edge of craft. Intended to be a space celebrating craft and tech in equal measure, it was designed to emulate a broadsheet newspaper with scrollable columns – infusing tactility. Throughout the site are randomized (and interactive) “scraps” sourced from IDEOers, giving the feeling of a messy, creative workspace.
