Olympus X

Autumn 2024

4 Week Project

This project reimagines a modern smartphone through the lens of Olympus’s classic camera design language.

The goal was to merge nostalgic tactile elements—like sliding lens covers, elliptical motifs, and precision surfacing—with a sleek, functional mobile form. By integrating key Olympus signatures into the phone’s CMF and interaction model, the result is a hybrid device that feels both iconic and forward-looking.

Olympus film cameras are often described as sleek, ergonomic, and timeless.
They typically feature a blend of minimalist elegance and functional design, with an emphasis on intuitive controls.
Additionally, their classic lines and often retro styling evoke a sense of nostalgia, appealing to both vintage enthusiasts and modern users alike.
