Andrew Neyer’s design series called ‘stuff’ is full of creative designs for everyday use. This design would help remind me to take my keys due to the more creative and interactive design, I also like the bright colour and simple outline shape.
Playful “Stuff” to Help You Around the House
Designer Andrew Neyer calls his collection or products Stuff, but it’s much more than that. The playful, minimalist style pieces provide some welcome help around the home and ingeniously store your keys and hang your shoes, all while looking like a modern sculptures. Neyer’s most conventional design is a riff on the French press—he’s made decals that will turn your ordinary “cafetière into a white-bellied barista.” His Stuff is now for sale through Etsy.

“You Can’t Save Money While You’re in Debt”-Andrew Neyer
The week before our spring break we had a guest come in all the way from Cincinnati, Ohio! Andrew Neyer from Stuff. Stuff is a brand created by Andrew, they specialize in creating objects they personally would like to have striving to combine minimalisms with wit.
Andrew told us about how his brand was born. Stuff arose from the ambition to create objects he felt he could make better and would ultimately save him from spending too much money on. Today he strives to make objects which might seem like beautiful art pieces, but are fully functional objects.
He also talked to us about the experiences he’s had such as licensing your design. Some of the benefits that he mentioned were that you can get name exposure from this since well known brands have larger audiences. Also, if it ever is too expensive for you to get the product out to the public, you can license your idea until you attain the funds to do so on your own. But he says that you must be careful with this and make every component necessary as to where it can’t be replicated in any other way without it looking entirely differently.
One of the reasons he moved to Cincinnati was to bring design to an audience who doesn’t see it everywhere. Andrew mentioned to us that it is important to know who is around you in terms of manufacturing and to more importantly know what they are capable of doing.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Andrew Neyer from taking the time out of his busy schedule to come sit in with our class. Seeing how successful he is, turning a passion into a career gives us all hope.

This week we talk (in person!!) with Andrew Neyer, from Stuff.
We make products that we want to own. Our products are derived from the combination of minimalism and wit. We partner with local fabricators to produce all our products. Each year our collection grows as we continue to explore the ways in which we interact with daily objects.
“Our design process is centered on reimagining familiar forms to inspire a new appreciation of ordinary objects. The process involves a series of reduction until the design feels effortless.”
Andrew graduate in 2008 on Printmaking at Maryland Institute College of Art. He used to do zines and books that time, as well working as an illustrator.
Then he started making products for his house. He made a light and all of his friends wanted so he started to making more and more.
Andrew decided to take as a serious thing, making a hole collection, that turned into Stuff (he defined as art with a function).
He shared with us about manufacturing process, about the construction of his studio that he did by HIMSELF.
It was a very nice talk, thanks for sharing everything with us. Andrew!
Let’s talk about Andrew Neyer
Andrew Neyer came to my class last Thursday, he didn’t just say he wanted to chat he “came over for a chat”. He owns his own production of his own products which it is called “Stuff”
The Meeting
Such an awesome guy to give us time out of his busy schedule to meet and talk with us about what he is and what he does. As an American artist and designer his urge to design was strong when he graduated in 2008 and went through that art phase where ideas such as for example moonlighting became of interest. His style with design is so minimal but it becomes a craft or an essence.
About his Products
His products play with products that are known but given a change of size or feeling lets the audience experience the interactions on a new level such as a big wristwatch for the wall. Funny story he mentioned that I thought was hilarious was that a person bought the watch expecting it to be a regular wristwatch; it was confusing because of how it was advertised. To me that would be the light of my day, it’s a better deal it is fit for a king.
Andrew brought a box of his products that he sells. Like a magnetic hand that looks like it is picking up keys but is magnetic. There was also storybooks, and some interesting card or printed material that has lovely illustrations on them and many other fun concepts. I love his concepts, as they are fun in a sense they do really bring perception of the love of the craft on a new level.
Would love to thank Andrew Neyer for his awesome visit.
Thank you,
Ashley
