“As a designer, I have a lot of respect for the iPhone’s
appearance. I don’t think its brilliant design should be compromised by a cheap
looking, bulky case,” says designed by m founder and CEO Lester Mapp, pictured at left.
So what did Mapp do? He designed the AL13, an ultra-thin iPhone bumper
that he says protects without compromising the style. It’s made from lightweight aerospace
aluminum and has a sleek, premium finish (black, silver or red) that blends seamlessly with the iPhone 4 or iPhone 5.
On Thursday, Mapp and his team launched the AL13 on Kickstarter, a crowdfunding website. Click here to visit the project page.
Based in Miami, designed by m opened for business in November and plans
designs for the smartphone, auto and gadget markets, Mapp says.
