Arya

Synopsis
Arya is the result of a 10-week senior thesis project.

Being an open prompt, I started this project with only personal criteria; to discover a product opportunity in an industry I'm passionate about and to design a product with the end goal of bringing it to market.

Arya is the world's first custom mouse that enables users to customize to their aesthetic and functional preferences, as well as repair and upgrade over time.
