Lukas Scheurer is an entrepreneur, inventor, and industrial designer whose work sits at the intersection of product design, engineering, and manufacturing. After graduating from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2013, he began his career leading a small in-house design team at a medical device company, where he gained early experience developing products within highly technical manufacturing environments.

He later founded Studio Brav LLC, a design consulting practice that has supported clients across a wide range of industries, including watercraft, consumer electronics, sporting goods, industrial sewing equipment, automated blood sample testing, electric vehicles, and more. In parallel, Lukas has developed his own line of phone accessories, evolving from Linkmount to Tango Grip and, more recently, Aeroloop and Stickypal.

Across this work, Lukas has been granted 11 patents. Over the past 13 years, he has built a global manufacturing and supply chain network, working closely with suppliers and factory teams to move ideas from concept through mechanical design, prototyping, tooling, fixtures, and production. His practice is grounded in a hands-on approach to manufacturing, with an emphasis on creating products that are beautiful, functional, and cost-effective to produce at scale.

Adam Dau owns S.K. Grimes, a Rhode Island precision machine shop that’s spent nearly three decades solving problems most people didn’t know existed. The company specializes in making custom camera parts, adapting vintage lenses to work with modern equipment, and fabricating one-of-a-kind mechanical solutions for photographers and designers worldwide.

Adam works at the intersection of engineering, manufacturing, photography, and industrial design. Most projects start with someone showing up with an idea, a technical challenge, or literally a napkin sketch. Through collaborative problem-solving, prototyping, and machining, those ideas become real working products. It’s a process built on simplicity, ingenuity, and the willingness to tackle whatever weird technical challenge walks through the door.

S.K. Grimes’ work shows up everywhere from Disney and Google to the Getty Museum and the Library of Congress, used by hundreds of photographers worldwide who need tools that simply aren’t available anywhere else.
