CloseCombine award-winning product designers with a revolutionary digital 3D tattoo process and the world’s best progressive artists and what do you get? You get Uncommon. A breakthrough in the future of personalization, Uncommon launches today empowering the world to turn its premium “blank canvas” accessories into self-expressive masterpieces. Their first blank canvas is the sleekest, most durable, twin-shot iPhone case on the market obsessively designed and engineered to make your “precious” look and feel its best. Tired of boring cases and cheap peely stickers? The future of customization is here.
Uncommon provides the canvas. You provide the inspiration.™
Born from the insight that everyone wants something unique in our ever-homogenizing world, but that most customization options are disappointing at best, Uncommon designed and developed their 3D TATT™(Thermo-Active Transdermal Technology) printing process and an uncommonly simple online customizer. The result is a new experience that allows limitless self-expression by wrapping whatever imagery you desire completely around the product embedding the ink deep into the product’s skin much like a tattoo. Permanent and personal.
Founded by designers to support and promote artists and the creative in everyone, Uncommon partners with over 150 of the world’s top progressive artists and brands including David Ellis, Grotesk, MQ, Phunk Studio, Juxtapoz, Slap and Thrasher. So whether you select, crop and scale art from the Uncommon gallery of renowned artists and brands or upload your own imagery, Uncommon will donate 2% of all profits towards the pursuit of the arts and arts education. Accomplished or aspiring designers and artists can also answer the call for entries by joining the Uncommon Community and submitting their art at a chance to be included in the galleries and earn royalties on every case sold with their artwork. Show the world how uncommon you really are.
“We were tired of playing by everyone else’s rules. It sucked. We created Uncommon so that we could do whatever we wanted. Now we are giving you the power to do whatever you want. That is Uncommon,” says Scott Wilson, Uncommon Brand Director and Co-Founder. “Constant compromise, design by committee and lame reasons on why you can’t do things ultimately lead to consumer dissatisfaction. We knew that offering the best technology, product design, customization experience and, most of all, following our instincts would lead to a strong creative community and brand love.”
Uncommon’s first products are the ultra-slim protective iPhone and iPod Touch Capsule Cases and Blackberry Storm 2 Trooper Case (all $39.95), with MacBook and Blackberry Curve cases, watches and other blank canvas objects soon to follow. Supporting our economy, products are customized in the USA and delivered to consumers fast. So go ahead, it’s easy to get Uncommon.
We believe in a great consumer experience and supporting our economy. To stand behind this belief Uncommon customizes their “blank canvas” products with their exclusive 3D TATT™ process in the USA enabling us to get you your order inhumanly fast. This is why Kentucky is quickly becoming the Guang Dong of the US. Alien technology, unreal art, and Kentucky. That is totally Uncommon.
In our everlasting pursuit to make your personal devices look even prettier, we’re soon offering two new blank canvases in the Uncommon store: The iPod Touch case and the Blackberry Storm II Case.
Both offered at $39.95 including your own personal customization, these cases will be printed directly on the case with Uncommon’s patented Thermo-Active Transdermal Technology™ (TATT) process. Your artwork and designs will be preserved and your gadget will be protected. No more cheap, blank cases and lame stickers!
Featuring a convenient capsule design, easy-access button covers and fully dockable while in top case, every one of our cases includes our unique twin-shot black screen bezel. Built in shatterproof, durable polycarbonate, these art-infused beauties will protect and inspire for years of use on your more prized devices.
We’re producing these cases now and should be able to offer them on the website in the coming months. Once we’ve got the blanks in stock, you’ll be able to completely customize your design from our gallery or your own uploaded designs and create your new masterpiece.

Having trouble with our Uncommon customizer not loading? Unfortunately it turns out that Adobe has not supplied a compatible Flash plugin for Windows 7 Explorer 64-bit. You are probably as surprised as we are that there is not support for the most pervasive dynamic web experience plug-in, but it is what it is… totally common. However, there is a somewhat easy solution. You can simply download Firefox, a very nice browser that much of the world uses, install it in less than a minute and our Flash-based customizer will work uncommonly well.
On behalf of Adobe and Microsoft we apologize for the inconvenience. I am sure they will figure it out soon.
