Paris Takes Centerstage with André for Curated by Arkitip

Celebrating the city that elevated André’s graffiti to cult status in the creative world, the fifth installment of Curated by Arkitip features the artist’s distinctive “Mr. A” stick figure character. Once seen everywhere from city walls to high fashion magazines and collaborations, Mr. A appears on the signature Incase 15″ Sleeve and Slider Case alongside André’s interpretation of the French tricolour.

The Paris-themed André products for Curated by Arkitip are timed to release in parallel with the opening of the first Apple retail location in France and will be available on opening day at the Apple Store, Carrousel du Louvre adjacent to the renowned art museum in Paris.

“André embodies the creative spirit and vibrancy of Paris, so it was only natural to introduce his contribution to Curated by Arkitip as Apple opens its first retail store in France,” said Damon Way, Incase Chief Brand Officer. “We are excited to do this with André to celebrate his artistic legacy and Paris, a city that artists from all walks of life continue to draw inspiration from.”

Incase, honeyee.com and uniform experiment Co-branded 13″ Sleeve Available Now

We’ve joined forces with honeyee.com and experimental menswear brand uniform experiment to introduce the highly limited-edition uniform experiment 13″ Sleeve. Designed to fit up to a 13″ MacBook Pro, the notebook sleeve features an all-over safety pin graphic, a signature emblem of uniform experiment, and is available now exclusively through our webstore in the United States and via Apple, honeyee.com and uniform experiment in Japan.

Sharing an appreciation and respect for design, quality, art and culture, Incase, honeyee.com and uniform experiment came together to present a collective representation of each brand in one cohesive product. The result was the uniform experiment 13″ Sleeve. As a protective solution for essential technology, the uniform experiment 13″ Sleeve takes a traditional, signature Incase product and adds styling and graphic elements from the uniform experiment brand.

uniform experiment is the collaborative brainchild of Hiroshi Fujiwara (fragment design) and Hirofumi Kiyonaga (SOPHNET.). The brand aims to challenge perceived notions of business wear by reconstructing traditional styles with a fresh approach to create a reinterpretation of the business uniform.

The uniform experiment 13″ Sleeve is available in two colorways, black/white (US, Japan) and black/green (Japan only), exclusively through our webstore, Apple Japan, honeyee.com and uniform experiment.

Introducing HunterGatherer for Curated by Arkitip

Today we launch the latest installment of the Curated by Arkitip project with New York-based HunterGatherer. The brainchild of Todd St. John, HunterGatherer is an award-winning design, illustration, animation and production studio.

St. John and frequent HunterGatherer collaborator Gary Benzel created the woodgrain pattern and have applied it to products ranging from furniture to skateboard decks. The signature design has been reintroduced for Curated by Arkitip, ornamenting two of our own signature products: the MacBook Sleeve and iPhone Slider Case.

HunterGatherer is known for its spare, but inventive projects, often combining experimental and hand-built techniques with more complex methods. Since 2000, HunterGatherer has stayed decidedly small, focusing on a limited number of assignments across a wide range of mediums. The HunterGatherer products for Curated by Arkitip add to the studio’s body of work, which include a number of animation projects for clients such as Nike, VH1 and The New York Times T: Magazine, as well as ongoing work for New York City’s green initiative, GreeNYC.

The HunterGatherer 15″ Sleeve for MacBook Pro and HunterGatherer Slider Case for iPhone 3G S and iPhone 3G are available today in our webstore and arkitip.com with availability following shortly in select Apple retail stores and better boutiques.

To learn more about the project, watch the video featuring interviews with HunterGatherer artists Todd St. John and Gary Benzel.

News from WWDC and Incase Products

Yesterday’s keynote address at the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference brought an air of excitement and anticipation with the introduction of both the new iPhone 3G S and a refreshed MacBook Pro family.

Incase for iPhone 3G S

Because iPhone 3G S will retain the same form as iPhone 3G, current Incase iPhone 3G cases are expected to be compatible with iPhone 3G S. We’re looking forward to the June 19 iPhone 3G S launch when we will be able to confirm the utmost compatibility with all Incase products.

Just as the iPhone has become the mobile phone of choice since its introduction, we strive to be the brand of choice for iPhone owners by continuing to offer a variety of cases for any and every user. Be on the lookout for updates about our new protective solutions that we’ll be introducing in the near future.

A MacBook For Every User

MacBook family upgrades, price reductions and a new 13″ addition to the MacBook Pro family were welcomed announcements out of WWDC.

For new MacBook owners looking for a carrying solution, our current offering of Neoprene Sleeves and Nylon Sleeves are compatible with each notebook of their respective size. We are currently working to create custom fit Hardshell Cases for all sizes within the new MacBook Pro family.

Keep checking with us for all the latest product news and information.
