Meet mophie.

If you have an iPhone or an iPad, you've probably heard of mophie.  They design and manufacture mobile intelligent devices and accessories, like the Juice Pack Plus.  Mophie's current facility in Paw Paw, Michigan is moving to a brand new spot in Western Michigan University's Business Park, and we recently started helping them with the design. Here is some of the preliminary work - we can't wait to see the finished product!
