Entry Description

Nimbus is a CBD vaporizer for the home. Counter to the cigarette form factor present in most of the vape market, Nimbus speaks the same formal language as a beautiful houseware product. Our research on stress relief led us to find out that relaxing is contextual—meaning it's based on the environments and associations that we create for ourselves. Built on this insight, Nimbus was designed considering the context of winding down at home. This ceremonial gesture serves as a catalyst that creates a single purposeful moment in the day for people to transition from work into a restful evening.
