Immortal & Fluxia
I was pondering how the longest-lived structures have simple, resilient forms—like a well-worn path in stone.
Indeed, the stone path stays because it doesn’t chase trends; it just works. In my designs I aim for the same: clean surfaces that conceal robust circuitry, so the gear endures beyond a fashion statement. Less flashy, more dependable—long‑term wins over a quick shine.
A quiet, steady design is like a river that keeps flowing, never worrying about the current fashions that wash over the shore. When you focus on function and endurance, the work remains useful long after the fleeting trends fade. Keep it simple, keep it strong.
Right on—think of it as a river that carves its own path; it never stops because it’s chasing a current, only because the bed was laid solid. That’s the mindset I keep for any piece of gear. Keep the core strong, let the surface breathe, and the wear will just fade around it.
Your view reminds me that true strength lies in the foundation, not in the polish. Keep building that bed, and the surface will always have room to breathe.
Exactly. If the foundation’s sound, the polish can stay where it belongs—on top, not in the core. It’s a simple rule, but it saves a lot of fuss in the long run.
