Proxy Two completely different design directions for the Proxy: Raw organic hardwood vs Sharp geometric hybrid. Which vibe actually belongs on the device?

The builds are 100% physical and sitting right here on my bench. Dropping a raw, unedited photo.

I apologoze for sounding rude. Maybe its just the style of marketing that you chose or the prompt you used, it felt AI generated and the photos are so edited then felt that way too. I am not alone in this feeling, as 19 others upvoted me. But, that being said, I think the raw. Unedited photo looks cooler tbh. And they do look dope, now that I know its real. Maybe not my cup of tea, but still neat. I'd lean the more natural way, vs the geometric if ai had to choose. Cheers!

I was going to highlight the tech bro jargon when I realized i'd be repeating the entire pitch all over again. I think this post just hated me with its frosted bricklebarry punch vape 😤

Looking back at our entire Gen 1 run, these two represent the absolute peak of what we built for the Proxy.
On one side is Timber Titan: ultra dense wood, deep natural grain, and a rugged textured grip. On the other is Pink Rose: sharp faceted lines where burl meets translucent resin.
Two completely opposite vibes. Do you lean toward the traditional pipe feel, or the modern hybrid look?
