Nooka x Rock the Bells

The Rock the Bells Festival Series has manifested into a premier world-class hip hop platform. It quickly became the only national hip hop festival to take its brand global in 2008, reaching over seven European countries. More than just a music festival, it has become a genuine rite of passage for thousand of core, social, and conscious hip hop enthusiasts. Few events can claim to both capture and define a movement, yet Rock the Bells has done just that.

This year, Nooka is a proud sponsor of the concert series and will be producing 250 custom designed timepieces featuring graphics influenced from the concert. Be sure to purchase your tickets for rock the bells and learn more about the series here!

Nooka and Rock the Bells will host a competition for Paid Dues fans to customize their own timepiece that will be produced. Please see contest rules and terms and conditions at http://www.nooka.com/rockthebells/

Nooka inducted to permanent collection at JIDA

Two Nooka designs were selected by the Japan Industrial Designers’ Association (JIDA) for the 12th exhibition of the “JIDA Museum Selection” and subsequently admitted to their permanent collection. The “ZOO” and “ZOT” designs were selected for their intuitive way of telling time through linear expression and visual mass. The “ZOO” displays time with a number for the “hour” while minutes are displayed on a horizontal bar. Seconds are displayed on the smaller window. The “ZOT” shows the hour via the 12 dots while the horizontal bar displays the minutes below along with seconds in a small window underneath. These unique timepieces are expressions of universal communication.

The Japan Industrial Designers’ Association was founded in 1952 and is the sole national organization of industrial designers in Japan. The Design Museum Selection is a collection of products that best reflect the times in which they were designed. The products are carefully selected by the Design Museum Committee with the goal of recording creative and practical designs from all over the world.

Each athlete was selected due to their profile in BMX as well as for the way they represent Nooka’s Mindstyle philosophy. Morgan Wade, Mike Spinner, Edwin dela Rosa, and Steve McCann have each custom designed their own timepiece to capture their unique style and personality.
