QUIETLY

You know that feeling when you sit down to work and your screen is a wall of tabs, open apps, and windows you'll come back to later?

Monocle softly dims all of it except the window you're using.

Nothing closes, nothing changes. The noise goes quiet enough to work, write, browse, or think again.

…just wiggle your mouse.

Hi Dominik,

I stumbled across Monocle recently, and was really moved by the elegance of the concept and execution. It's quiet and beautiful in a way that most digital tools have forgotten. You've built something really special.

My partner and I run a tiny technical agency based in SF and Seoul, and it's these pieces of inspiration that really keep us going. Your work has given us some incredible motivation at the end of a long winter.

I think that sometimes in the daily grind of our own agency work, we don't take enough time to give credit to the things that catch our eye and keep us hungry to create great work, so I wanted to make it a point to reach out and let you know the impact it's had on us.
