The rotary mechanical smartphone is based on the idea of incorporating more feeling and life into our everyday digital objects.

Are we happy with generic rectangles of a touchscreen or do we want something with more tangibility, something with more life, something with more aura?

“I have looked at where industrial design has come from, and where it might be going to, and by doing so have tried to create an object that is true to both, a harmonious combination of mechanical parts and digital technologies”. Rotary mechanical is a question not only about the ever increasing ‘digital take-over’ of everything in our lives but also what is lost when this happens.
