Better Looking Case?

@Damon_Anderson Nick, the Industrial Designer from Framework explained the reasoning for the design -

@Poyu_Chen

About the color, we basically used the raw Aluminum color for laptop. We tried to reduce the toxic production process just only for getting a “colorful laptop”. On the Framework laptop, we tried to limit the process as much as we can by eliminate the “dying color” process during the anodizing, meanwhile keep the sandblasting and anodizing seal process to ensure the quality and durability are prefect without sacrificing the outward appearance. That is why we came out with a silver color, anodized overall looking on the Framework laptop. We valued customer and environment as highest priority than everything else. And I think design should serve to the people and earth instead of overriding them.

So not only are they trying to make life easier for us to repair/upgrade the laptop, part of the philosophy is a contribution, hopefully not too late, to saving the planet.

Edit: @Dominic_Keen I was making my reply at the same time as yours, which I only saw after I sent mine.
