With the possibility to change the bezel color, why not produce and sell chassis to match? I for one, would LOVE a sleek navy blue laptop. Really anything other than a grey laptop in a sea of greys.
See Awesome concept, strange execution - #6 by Poyu_Chen for the rational behind the color choice (and why you’re unlikely to see other colors).

Would it be possible to offer more design choices for the chassis? I would like to see more colour options or even different shapes of the chassis.
I wonder,
Had anyone tried spray painting their chassis?

I saw this and my first thought was the new Macbook Air Midnight Blue.
Then I saw this:
For Framework as a small company, having too many SKUs for casing would be though.
I am thinking of dBrand stickers though.

Hi and welcome
Not on the cards
It doesn’t seem Framework plans to offer any colors. They said they’ve found color anodizing to be too environmentally unfriendly.
You can have any color, as long as it’s silver. “Any color […]” -Henry Ford
You mean like the replacement parts you can already buy for years in the marketplace?
My solution to the drab silver color was to get the orange display frame and a dbrand skin. Great combination, especially for Ubuntu. Might change it up if I switch to Fedora 40 later.
Thanks for sharing! I just ordered the same kit for the framework 13 with orange bezel that I ordered yesterday. I can’t wait to see it in person.
