Skymill - Watch the weather unfold
EXPERIENCE THE WEATHER LIKE NEVER BEFORE WITH SKYMILL
Weather shapes our days, our moods, and our conversations. Yet for a long time, forecasts have been something we glance at quickly and just as quickly forget. In a world full of screens, Skymill offers a completely new approach to the weather. Skymill is a kinetic sculpture that brings the forecast to life—without a single screen.
Skymill translates weather data into movement. By combining 9 different weather symbols, it can display over 35 unique weather conditions. The symbols move and shift in real time based on the current forecast, creating a visual and physical interpretation of the weather.
You can see how the wind blows, how clouds roll in, or how the sun breaks through—not through numbers, but through motion. It’s a new way to experience something as everyday as the weather, even though it affects us constantly.
Curious about the forecast for later today? With a simple press of the discreet button at the base, Skymill reveals the outlook for the coming hours—in the same beautiful and dynamic way.
"With Skymill, I wanted to create something that respects the way we used to look at the sky. It doesn't reduce the weather to numbers on a screen, but lets you reconnect with it", säger designer Gustav Rosén.
HOW SUPPORTING SKYMILL ON KICKSTARTER WORKS
Kickstarter is a platform where creative projects can become reality with the help of people who choose to support them in various ways. For those unfamiliar with the concept, here’s a short guide on how to support Skymill on Kickstarter and help bring the project to life:
No payment until the campaign ends: When you place a pledge for Skymill, no money will be charged to your account until the campaign ends on July 3rd — and only if we reach our funding goal. If the goal isn’t met, no money will be withdrawn, and you lose nothing.
Different ways to support: You can pre-order Skymill at a special price or secure a limited edition to guarantee one of only 100 pieces. But if you're on a tighter budget or simply want to support the project without receiving a product, there are options for that too. You can pledge any amount to support the campaign or choose exclusive rewards such as Gustav’s specially designed bottle opener “Otto” or a Skymill poster — great ways to be part of the journey.
Hopefully, this helps clarify how Kickstarter works and makes you feel comfortable supporting the realization of Skymill!
