A new type of PC case that is Post Computex Summary
Firstly, a big thank you to all those who took the time to visit us at Computex, we know how busy schedules can be and we genuinely appreciate the time …
Introduction to the Concept
What is CANVAS?
PC Customizing and modding has become an art form, there are some truly incredible builds that are sometimes unrecognizable from their original form, but if there is one core component that limits creativity, its the case. Most have similar internal layouts and a predefined static environment that limit the placement and arrangement of components. This means creating a truly unique PC is exclusively in the realm of extreme enthusiasts and beyond the expertise of an typical user.
The CANVAS is a new approach to mounting PC hardware, a case where the components have no defined location or orientation, a case that can be wall mounted or free standing on a desk upright or as a benchtable.
So how does it work ?
The answer …. Neodymium magnets! We have developed a magnetic mounting system that can be attached to any and all hardware, allowing it to be place anywhere on the CANVAS. This unique approach to fitting hardware gives complete and total freedom to the layout, a level of flexibility that has never been seen before.
Design, Development, Partnership
The Story of Canvas
HOW IT STARTED
The original concept for the Canvas started of as an idea from a gamer with a passion for technology. Building, tweaking, modding and optimizing his rig, it became clear that the biggest limitation in customization was the case itself. Not satisfied with what was available on the market coupled with a desire to approach the problem from a different direction, a simple question was posed, “what if I created my own case ?”
THE PARTNERSHIP
The journey to create this new case led Streacom as they had partnered before with enthusiasts to create new products, and after sharing the goal and values it was clear that the synergy would refine and enhance the idea. A partnership was created to bring an idea to a concept and then to a prototype, the results is a very exciting flexible solution that offers so many possibilities.
Streacom has been pushing the boundaries of PC case design for the past decade with products like the DB4 and BC1, they were are natural partner for the is project. With their proficiency of clean, functional design and arguably some of the best premium manufacturing services in the industry, they were able to quickly grasp and translate the original idea into its current form today and will continue to see this project though to what is guaranteed to be a perfectly finished product.
Maverick is a startup company that has chosen to specialize in premium quality computer gear, but with a think-out-of-the-box approach that breaks the status quo of design, function and performance. What Maverick doesn’t have in terms of history, it makes up for with passion and dedication to creating exciting new products for the PC market. This is only the beginning of an exciting journey to turn lifelong hobbies into shared product experiences.
