lumnl is a design studio that embeds with hardware startups to build exceptional intelligent products.

Behind lumnl is Dave Evans, an award winning product designer and engineer based in Silicon Valley.

For over 25 years I've developed physical products from concept to customer. My work integrates industrial design, product management, mechanical engineering, and manufacturing. I join growing teams to articulate challenges across disciplines, seek appropriately scaled solutions, bridge functional gaps, and drive superlative execution.

I help real artists ship.

I’m building lumnl around a conviction that embodied AI must reflect deep cultural patterns of how humans interact with intelligence in everyday objects. Through lumnl I hope to bring my unique perspective and perspicacity to collaborations with nimble, visionary teams building profound new things. ‍
