Distil Union Distil Union is a design studio having fun (and working hard) creating solutions to real-life proble Hi, we're Nate Justiss and Lindsay Windham. Selfish? Perhaps.

Drawing on decades of design experience — from album covers to Apple accessories — we founded Distil Union to focus on products that simply make life a little better. Together, we believe design is about creating better experiences. We met in 2006, and in our years as designers, we worked on literally hundreds of products together (mainly Apple accessories). When our last gig closed their Charleston office, we stayed to soak up the lifestyle of freelance designers in this laid-back coastal town that's full of "working-class creatives" and entrepreneurs. As friends we stayed connected, often riffing on product ideas over beers... So in 2011, we joined together (Union, get it?) to create the products we want to see on the shelves. Exciting? You bet your pants it is! But truth be told, nothing makes us happier than hearing one of our designs has helped make your life a little better.

The belt hasn’t gotten an update in approximately a century. It’s time to change that.

NEW IN The Objective Market (a mini-market curated by Distil) 👉 Dieter Rams: Less but Better

Few product designs have the staying power of creations by Dieter Rams. Almost everything produced by the most influential designer of the twentieth century is today considered a classic. This new and revised edition of Less but Better shows once again why Dieter Rams’s approach to design will be relevant for the foreseeable future.

Ideas of what can and must be achieved by good design are in a constant state of flux as a result of cultural and technological developments.

Dieter Rams, however, came up with ten principles that advocate for a purist, almost imperceptible design. These principles are still considered timeless fundaments of design theory and practice today.

Less but Better does not set out to be a complete documentation of Dieter Rams’s body of work, nor does it claim to tell the full story of the company Braun.

Rather the book explores the ideas, criteria, and methods behind Rams’s creations and reveals how a shifting culture of product manufacturing gave rise to universal design benchmarks.

From his reflections on design ethics and values we can distill a clear paradigm for future design—because one principle has remained firm over the years: less is simply better.

A belt your guitar can get behind. 🎸

No buckle = no buckle rash. With no buckle out front, MagLock Belt gives the back of your guitar one less piece of metal to rub, knock or scratch against. It can even cover the metal button on your jeans while you play.
