How Tangible Thinking Works.
The Desktop Studio is designed to work with the Tangible Thinking OS. Based on 30 years of design practice.
At its core Tangible Thinking moves ideas out of your head, and into your hands—the key mechanism to growing ideas and working creatively. Tactile surfaces make the intangible, tangible. It anchors your ideas and gives your mind something to grasp.
Embrace The "Messy" Middle
Every creative workflow has a “messy” middle, where ideas are in flux, and need to be seen in order to be developed.
The secret to creativity is to stay in the 'messy' middle long enough that you expand your thinking and gain clarity in new ideas.
Creativity mindsets differ from productivity ones
Productivity techniques don't work for creativity - instead, they cost your creativity. To create ideas, you need to tune into insights and intuition. Creativity is more like play, it's not bound to time, but to gaining clarity.
Be mindful of how you capture ideas.
Capture ideas using simple, frictionless, and accessible instruments - pen and paper.
Other tools - like apps or devices - will cost you your attention & change your ideas to fit the tool.
Putting your thoughts on paper improves memory, understanding and are better for shaping your ideas.
Keep ideas where you can see and touch them.
Your best ideas are usually out of sight. They're either in a notebook, an app, or worse, they're still in your head.
Not anymore, now you can place your ideas where you can see them. Reach out to sift through, or to organize them. Think deeply, and gain clarity into what's going on in your mind.
"Messy" is the Journey
Deeper creativity leads to better productivity.
The messy middle isn't something you should avoid. It's a core part of the creative journey. The studio is the doing part of the journey. A place where you generate new ideas, solve problems and gain clarity. Its your creative field of view.
Founder, Designer & Near-Futurist

Something had changed.
My mind was fragmented. I didn’t know why. But it felt like something important was missing. I couldn’t find my groove. I had so many ideas I wanted to get out. But there wasn’t enough time or there was always something else to do. I was frustrated and I was struggling to get ideas out.
What was once easy, was now hard.
I went on a journey to find out why, and what I found out surprised me. Both my mind and my thinking were outdated - they weren't built for this technology distracting world.
So I decided to design something that would keep me focused and distraction free. It was right under my nose, a system I had been using my entire design practice.
Three years later, and its finally here.
