The Minimalissimo newsletter is sponsored by aprile, the hanging chair.

The most recent product by Nendo I would like to share with you is Orime.

Orime, created for Elecom, is a wireless laser mouse that has some parallels with a Nighthawk Stealth Fighter aircraft. Rather than the usual curved mouse this one is formed entirely from flat surfaces.

Formed as though by folding a piece of paper, the orime mouse fits comfortably into the hand.

I like the technical appearance of the flat surfaces and sharp lines, but have some doubts about the comfortable fit into the hand.
