New Design Monday

Lazerwood and textile designer, Anne Marie Jackson, are pleased to announce their collaboration on a new line of Artist Series iPhone covers. Anne Marie Jackson is an award winning textile & surface designer, who is highly regarded for her compelling designs and her innovative use of color communication. Throughout her working career, Anne Marie has produced prints used across all genres of design. She has collaborated with brands such as Chloe, Roberto Cavalli, H&M, Samsung and Zune. The seamless transition from textiles to wood has offered Anne Marie a creative stretch resulting in three refreshing new iPhone covers for Lazerwood.

The “Fiorello” in Cherry brings a subtle lyrical quality to Lazerwood while the “Lace” in black cherry offers function to that age old dilemma of what to do with something small, black and lacy.   “Peony” in maple highlights Anne Marie’s signature aesthetic while remaining subtle enough to work with the clean lines of the iPhone. 

All covers are on sale now at Lazerwood.com

Calling All Artists

Meet The Team

Our founders, Benoit Collette and Erick Waldman

Lazerwood,cofounded in 2010 by two designers, Erick Waldman and Benoit Collette,developed an iPhone 4 case solution that emanates natural aesthetic finishesbut fits flawlessly with the phone’s uniquely thin design. Shopping for theirown iPhone 4 cases proved fruitless, so the resourceful duo created theprototype that is now Lazerwood. Colleagues and friends began requesting coversto purchase and a brand was born. 

“We wanted something that didn’t add bulk, orcompete with the incredible design of the iPhone,” said Waldman. “Thin woodveneer seemed like the perfect choice.”

Staying true to the sleek and clean visualstyle of the iPhone, Lazerwood cases are designed to adhere solidly to thephone, without any damage. Using the warmth and beauty of real wood veneer, thecases are precision-cut to fit the back and sides of the phone.

“I love the natural feel of the wood,”Collette adds. “It’s amazing how comfortable it makes the phone feel.”

Lazerwood products are all manufactured insmall batches in the heart of Seattle Washington. The initial team of 2 hasexpanded to the slightly larger size of 4, with creative direction provided bythe founding partners. 

Silence Is Golden

The talented team that brought us Loose Lips  has done it again with a new addition to the Lazerwood line. Silence Is Golden, with it's bold use of typogrophy and saturated coverage, carries the cool signature of Attak designers. The Dutch duo of Peter Korsman and Casper Herselman produce strong work and we are proud to offer you their newest design in cherry or black.   

Miles To Go

Miles To Go it the brain child of Greg Kerr, artist and avid reader. Greg's apparel company is a sublime combination of broody art inspired by black listed reads, and cool stop-in-your-tracks T-shirts. We were more than happy to collaborate with him on a few customs covers for his shop.

Real Love

Real Simple certainly needs no introduction from me. This monthly publication has become a recourse staple for my generation and has informed us of how to do everything from use that dusty crock pot to update our home computers. It is an honor to be included in their Fashionable Tech Cases article. 

I ran across the clever designs of .Free Clothing Co a couple of months ago and immediately wanted to translate a few of their ideas onto Lazerwoods. Emails, phone calls and several different proofs later and we have re-imagined thier New Balloon design for the latest Artist Series installment.

Check out .Free Clothing Co to see their custom Lazerwood collection.

We are so pleased with the results of our collaboration with British company 3Nil. Dan Gribbon took his vision for stylish and creative sportswear and took it to another level with a beautiful cherry Lazerwood.

Thank you, Ahalife for a new twist on our Lazerwood!

Though DIY is often taken to mean, “I’m going to spend the weekend installing a new kitchen,” it needn’t be that strenuous. DIY can be as easy on a manicure as selecting the color of diamond eyes you want in a skull pendant or the design you’d like to sketch on your shower curtain. Today we celebrate the lighter side of DIY, with a selection of products that will appeal to your creative side but not exhaust it or require you to wear a respirator. Choose from four precision cut, real wood veneer cases that you peel and stick to your iPhone, or try out our beautifully jeweled temporary tattoos that make for an instant elegant addition. Easy. Fun. Satisfying. That’s our kind of DIY.

Two big fans of Lazerwood Unite!

Ahalife.com is part online editorial, part shopping mall deluxe and we were honored to be showcased by them in March. It seems Ahalife readers LOVE to pin! Thanks everyone for including us on your Pintrist pages!

Mr. Barn from How to Carve Roast Unicorn and I have been chatting about putting his illustrations to good use on a Lazerwood. Best Blog Name of the day, for sure!

We have had a huge influx of custom work for apparel companies. It has been fun working with other creatives to translate their art onto our Lazerwoods. The covers below were for Jawbreaking, a very hip brand from North Carolina.

The latest addition to our Artist Series is a collaboration with illustrator Genevieve Gail. She provided us with a trio of wise birds for our already smart phone and a whimsical interpretation of a classic look. Here is a little bit about the artist in her own words.

Where did all the owls come from?

I've always loved drawing birds and my grandma gave me the coolest vintage owl necklace that inspired me to do a collection of my own.

Where do you go /What do you do to get inspired?

I'd say my biggest inspirations are music, nature, and anything vintage. I love to get my hands on new albums and just play them for hours and hours and paint or design products on the computer. I also love antique stores. They are super inspiring to me and I always leave with a million ideas swirling around in my head!

You seem to have worked in many mediums. Which is your favorite?

Hmmmm....that's a tough one! I guess it depends on what day of the week it is. I like having a mixture of different things to do- drawing, painting, making jewelry, product design- it keeps things fresh and exciting to have different creative outlets. Although I will say there's nothing better than sitting outside on a nice Georgia day with my sketchbook...

We are celebrating the hard work of our femme fatal by having a Retirement Sale on the "Liselle" cover. This artist series design by Lisa Lee has been amazingly successful and we only have a few covers left. Don't miss out on the final run for this lady like Lazerwood.

Canadian writer/blogger Stephanie Dickinson recently reviewed our artist series cover from Beavory. Thanks for the kind words Stephanie!

"I am smitten by their Artist Series that offers up delectables like Lisa Lee's Liselle in Cherry and ATTAK's Loose Lips in Black Cherry. I got the cutest little Beavor by Beavory which makes me smile everytime I look at it. how can you not fall for a beaver in sneakers?! And the artistry is phenomenal. You can see and feel each individual hair on l'il Beav!"
