Braun Calculator

About the Device

The Braun Calculator, designed by Dieter Rams and Dietrich Lubs, is celebrated for its minimalist layout and distinctive round buttons. It set a new standard for functional, user-friendly design in everyday electronics.

Case Study

This digital illustration was created in Figma as a study in shadows, depth, and angles, aiming to capture the realism and tactile feel of the original device. The process was entirely manual, focusing on understanding how light interacts with surfaces and how to translate physical objects into digital form.

The project is open source—anyone can download, learn from, and use these illustrations from the Figma Community file. If you find it useful, please like and show some love!
