Crafted for Creatives

The Komi Card Ruler isn’t just another tool; it’s the quintessence of thoughtful design. Tailored to accommodate the diverse needs of print, digital media, or the simple art of crafting, The Komi emerges as an indispensable ally for any creative endeavor.

With this in mind, we’ve meticulously incorporated five distinct measurement units, paving the way for seamless creation across any platform or medium. We’ve held on to the timeless metrics of centimeters and inches, acknowledging their irreplaceable role in the foundation of design work.

The Komi doesn’t just adhere to the norms of traditional rulers—it innovates and expands upon them, providing you with the versatility you’ve always needed but rarely found. It’s time to redefine the boundaries of design with a tool that speaks the language of both the past and the future.

Crafted for the Digital Age: Precision for Pixels and Print

In our digital world, design transcends traditional boundaries, requiring tools that keep pace with innovation. Engineers have meticulously integrated picas and pixel measurement units into the Komi ruler, tailoring it for this new era.

The pica, an indispensable typographic unit, comes to life with The Komi, enabling designers to transition from screen to print seamlessly. One pica, corresponding to a 12pt font, isn’t merely an abstract concept with our ruler; it’s a tangible measurement for precise typographic work. Imagine drawing up a document and visually pinpointing the exact font size or laying out margins, columns, and gutters intuitively. The Komi makes these tasks second nature.

With pixel measurements also etched into its surface, The Komi allows digital designers to sketch with the precision of online execution. No more guesswork. No more approximations. Just accurate, real-world dimensions at your fingertips.

Pixel Perfect: Dual Pixel Scales for Precision Designing

The Komi card ruler redefines the traditional approach to pre-digital layout creation, presenting two meticulously calibrated pixel scales—one on each side—for ultimate precision.

By aligning your paper sketches with the very pixels that will represent them digitally, the Komi card ruler allows you to visualize and arrange buttons, icons, and graphical elements with newfound clarity—transition from paper to pixel with confidence. The Komi ensures that the dimensions of your preliminary sketches are spot-on, empowering you to breeze through the refinement stage once you’re back at your computer.

Beyond Measurement: The Komi Ruler’s Hidden Talents

The Komi ruler brings more than precise lines to the table—it’s a virtuoso of versatility concealed within a sleek design.

Bookmark & Paperclip: Effortlessly slip it between pages to mark your spot in any book or clip together your essential documents. The Komi is more than a measuring tool—it’s an accessory for your reading and organizational needs.

A Masterpiece of Materiality and Hue

In crafting The Komi, our selection of materials and color finishes stemmed from a single philosophy: enduring beauty must complement tactile pleasure. We sought a refined aesthetic that resists the passage of time, both visually and to the touch.

The choice was clear—the FR4 board emerged as the champion. Superior to plastic in strength yet lighter than aluminum, it grants The Komi longevity and ease of handling that delights the senses. This thoughtfully selected material is the bedrock upon which we built a ruler that promises resilience without sacrificing elegance.

Designing the Indispensable Creative Ally

We set out on a mission to craft not just a ruler but the quintessential companion for every creative individual. Our vision was clear: a tool that would seamlessly combine many essential features and measurement units while embodying a sleek and sophisticated design.

The result is The Komi, a distillation of precision and elegance that houses four distinct measurement scales along its refined edges:

–2 inches for succinct accuracy and compact projects

–7 centimeters, offering a versatile metric option for a variety of tasks

–12 picas providing typographers and print designers with essential layout metrics

–Pixel scales calibrated at 300 pixels for 150 DPI and 600 pixels for 300 DPI, empowering digital professionals to design with pixel-perfect accuracy

Each measurement is strategically positioned on The Komi’s edges, allowing you to switch between units with a simple wrist turn. We’ve considered every stroke, sketch, and selection to offer you a ruler that doesn’t just measure but inspires and facilitates your creative process.
