Milwaukee Digital Level Wins Gold
Last night at the 2019 IDEA ceremony, it was an evening to remember. Tactile and Milwaukee Tool received an IDEA Gold Award for the Milwaukee REDSTICK Digital Level in the digital interaction category. Recognized as one of the most prestigious design awards programs, the International Design Excellence Awards (IDEA) recognizes exceptional achievement in industrial design, design strategy, branding, digital interaction, and many more categories. All IDEA winners become part of The Henry Ford Museum’s permanent collection. It’s truly an honor to be among the winners awarded for design excellence, and we’re so proud to be a part of the design collaboration. Congratulations to Milwaukee and the Tactile Design Team!

Women in Design Deep Dive Event
Earlier this month Tactile had the honor of sponsoring IDSA’s Women in Design Deep Dive in San Francisco. It was an incredible event listening to strong, talented women tell their stories about the struggles and accomplishments of working in an industry historically and predominantly inhabited by men. We look forward to continued progress for women in not only design but all industries. Let’s hear it for the ladies!

Another win!
We are thrilled to announce that Tactile won two 2013 Bronze International Design Excellence Awards (IDEA) from the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA). Characteristic of Tactile, the awards celebrate work in diverse disciplines: concept development and usability research for a global health product (Intellectual Ventures Lab’s “Cold Chain” device), and full product redesign for the Liposonix Body Contouring System. They also represent Tactile’s growing engagement in the fields of med–tech and global good—and it seems we’re on a roll. Read more about Liposonix here or Intellectual Ventures here.
