KIN is a photo printer that nudges us along in connecting with loved ones through the integration of video calls and printed keepsakes into one effortless routine.
Emphasizing a minimal setup, streamlined interactions and a confident yet unobtrusive form, KIN is designed for elderly relatives.
By simplifying printing for everyone, however, KIN highlights the tangibility of print and the cherished relationships it embodies.
KIN takes its inspiration from photo frames, encasing and protecting the pictures within through minimal setups, streamlined interactions and a confident yet unobtrusive form.
