Hessian

6 February, 2013 Pete

post_7364-450x237.jpg

Hessian is an invader, an ode, a pitch to the market, a brand for sale.

Ben Pierrat developed this brand as an experiment for himself – that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have value for someone else. Ben hopes that value lies somewhere around the $18,000 mark.

There is a great article on Wired about the project.

His thinking is spot-on when he says:

“The core thought with Hessian.tv is that, as designers, we naturally see solutions to problems/opportunities we can’t help but notice in the market. We have concepts that we know are valid and worthwhile, and not only that but we instinctually know how they should be launched, how they should look, how they should work, and who their target audience should be.

HOWEVER, as anyone who has tried building something knows, the actual production and launch of a great idea is incredibly difficult. Not only that, but, as Svpply taught me, launching, leading, growing and managing a product is an entirely different skill set than most designers have or want to have or should be expected to have.

Inversely, there are oceans of MBAs, Managers and Entrepreneurs out there who are passionate and talented at the actual building and leading of companies, but may not actually be great at identifying worthwhile problem/solutions in the market.”
