A Pocket-Sized Ode to Print

If you’ve ever geeked out over the beauty and imperfection of classic comics or other four-color process printing ephemera, this little cube might just hit you right in the ink-stained heart.

The CMY Cube is a mesmerizing desk totem that captures the soul of traditional print in a way that’s hard to explain until you hold it. Each face is a translucent veil of cyan, magenta, or yellow (the foundational colors of the CMYK world). Rotate it in the light, and you’ll witness a miniature color theory miracle: hues shifting and blending like a living offset press.

It’s part science museum artifact, part design studio fidget toy, and entirely hypnotic. Keep it on your desk, pick it up during a brainstorm, show it off on Zoom calls (trust us, it happens), or just let it remind you why you fell in love with graphic design in the first place.

  • 50mm — the classic size, a little smaller than a classic stick ball (if a stickball was bestowed with magical print properties).

  • A true CMYK homage of cyan, magenta, and yellow faces. Shift into endless hues as you rotate it.

  • Made with electromagnetically subtractive materials (aka color theory sorcery in cube form).

  • A must for any designer or print lover's desk.  Always a conversation starter, always satisfying to hold.

  • Equally at home in a design studio, classroom, or nestled next to your favorite comic books and sketchbooks.

  • A beautiful way to teach, or remind yourself of, the concept of four-color process printing

  • Stand sold separately.

Warning: causes sudden urges to explain CMYK to friends, coworkers, and strangers.
