The student-run design company Fine Grain just launched a product on Kickstarter called the BOWDEN + SHEFFIELD Minimalist iPad Cases. The two cases were built upon the idea of creating an iPad case that is sturdy enough to take a beating, yet sleek enough for any given setting. They’re made from natural materials and each have a magnetic closure system that keeps your iPad securely in place.
The Bowden is milled from aircraft grade aluminum and features walnut or cherry hardwood side finishes, along with a black or brown full-grain leather magnetic enclosure. The Sheffield is made from milled polycarbonate which doubles as a dry-erase board (how cool is that) and comes with a felt magnetic cover. Check out their Kickstarter here. Shake it guys.
