## Summary

Dan Provost and Tom Gerhardt of Studio Neat discuss the successful short-form Kickstarter campaign for the Mark One: Apollo Edition, detailing the manufacturing challenges of working with stainless steel tolerances and the decision to delay delivery to avoid holiday stress. The hosts then speculate on potential products for Jony Ive’s new design consultancy, LoveFrom, suggesting items like mechanical watches, eyeglasses, and household appliances that could benefit from his minimalist design philosophy.
