Lumos: 6-in-1 Ruler for Designers, Engineers & Creators
Revolution in Measurement
Lumos isn’t just a ruler — it’s a creative leap forward. In a world where designers move effortlessly between digital and physical workspaces, traditional tools haven’t kept up.
Lumos is the answer: a precision-crafted instrument with five essential scales and a built-in compass, designed to meet the demands of modern creators.
Built for the Way You Work
Forget juggling multiple tools or breaking your creative flow. Lumos combines metric, imperial, pica, and pixel scales into a sleek, compact form — and adds a compass for perfect circles and arcs.
Whether you’re sketching by hand or designing digitally, Lumos adapts with ease.
Why We Built Lumos
Lumos was born from a simple frustration: switching between tools disrupts the creative process. After months of research and prototyping, we created a ruler that simplifies workflows without compromising precision.
Every detail — material, scale, and curve — was chosen with intent, for creators who expect more from their tools.
What Makes Lumos Different?
Lumos is made from FR4 composite — stronger than plastic, lighter than metal — and built to last. It’s safe for kids, sharp in design, and minimal enough to slip into any notebook or bag. From your first sketch to your final prototype, Lumos brings reliability, style, and inspiration to your process.
