Unexpected places your designs have shown up

I’ve seen the hand dryer that I designed in a number of new Tim Horton’s renovations. Maybe Richard or Jon could confirm if this is nationwide or not.

It’s pretty good for a nearly 10 year old design. The graphics don’t look too dated either.

nice, some good surfacing! … plus it is named El-Niño Turbo? Awesome.

Living, working, playing out of an Airbnb in Portland this week and the first thing I noticed when I walked in was two products I worked on :slight_smile:

I haven’t been in a TH bathroom lately…I’ll keep an eye open if I happen to be bound and gagged before being dragged into one :wink:

Was scrolling through Instagram the other day and saw another designer post a couple of shoes asking which pair to wear… I designed that bottom one in 2003. Hadn’t thought about that one in a long time!

Pretty stupid movie but I noticed an old friend in the obligatory “hacker” scene :stuck_out_tongue:


oh nice! :slight_smile:

One unexpectedly showed up the other day on the wrist of a person I was meeting with.

That must have been a surprise with only such a limited production!.. Did you know the guy had one?

At my old university. Walking my kid to her summer camp I came across this out in the wild. Sad to see it stripped of branding and all beat up…but hey, it’s an industrial vehicle. I wish I had gotten a better picture but it was behind bars.


I had no idea. It was only 30 minutes in that even noticed… he was just waiting for me to catch on. :slight_smile:

I stumbled across this Taiwanese stop-motion promo video with 2 of the transformers we worked on.

Watching Mission Impossible Fallout the other day and noticed a LifeProof iPad Case I did significant work on a few years ago getting some good screen time:

Oh nice! Congrats!

The location was expected being an airport and me having designed travel luggage.
But I saw it from a random runway models post and I’m going through her pics and recognize one of my bags in her picture. She was carrying it or the person in front of her was but it was very prominent.

This week, I saw a shower caddy foot that I designed laying amongst some leaves and bags near someone’s trash can. I didn’t have the heart to take a photo.

I was at the APIC conference (Association of Professionals in Infection Control, or thereabouts). I worked on this project years ago. We killed it. Sold off the IP to another company 2(?) years ago. Hardware and dashboard interface pretty much exactly the same. Full launch is November. I hope to see one in the wild on a nurse.

That must have been a nice surprise!

I always liked the idea and project. Just didn’t make financial sense for my company as this would be a stand-alone in our portfolio. The company that bought it has a wide range of products in this category, so it makes sense for them.

It is kind of fun seeing this Transformers Siege Prowl show up in collectors’ Prowl collections when they post on twitter.
