Crazy Design Challenge: Building A Phone Case Out Of Puzzle Pieces (Full Process)
In this video series, I share my entire, start-to-finish creative process on camera, as I embark on a crazy design challenge: building a phone case out of puzzle pieces. Along the way, I share and explain everything that I'm doing and thinking in detail — every idea, decision, tool, and technique.
You'll learn the exact process for how I come up with my initial ideas, all the way through to bringing the final builds to life.
In the process, I'll be explaining my approach to the following topics:
- Brainstorming & Evaluating Ideas
- Exploring the Design Space
- Prototyping, Testing & Iterating
- Building Tools & Techniques
- Research, Sketching & Modeling
- Defining Build Requirements
- Using Unconventional Materials
- CAD, Laser Cutters & CNC
- Exploring a New Concept
- Designing to Solve a Problem
- Troubleshooting & Fine-Tuning
- Storytelling & Documentation
In this series, I also make sure to teach you all of the skills you need to successfully follow along with my process. My hope is that you’ll learn to think and work like an inventor!

You want to know all of Simone Giertz’s insider secrets — the exact tools and techniques she uses, her hard-won lessons, and well-guarded industry secrets.
I watch the Studio videos to see my favorite YouTubers' "behind the scenes" to learn their process and pick up skills. It was fun seeing Simone work through these projects as well as the techniques and tools she used.
Learning to explore the properties of my build material was a game-changer!
Seeing Simone deal with uncertainties helped me reflect how to deal with challenges in my own projects.
Loved that the structured nature of the content gives time to think things through before charging ahead.
Hey, I’m Simone Giertz! I'm a full-time maker, inventor, and YouTuber. Over the past decade, I've dreamt up and built all kinds of creative projects, including a table with a hidden puzzle surface; a desk chair for people and their pets; a coffee table made out of matchsticks; a custom daily habit tracker; a selfie booth for my dog; an instrument out of teeth; a paper shredder modeled after my brain; and robots to brush my teeth, feed me, cut my hair, and wake me up. I even built the world's first electric flatbed truck by modifying my Tesla. In my Studio, I’m sharing my real, behind-the-scenes, invention process: Watch me explore and create builds from start-to-finish on camera, as I explain everything I’m doing and thinking in detail. If you’ve ever wondered how I create playful, imaginative builds or how I use my maker skills to solve everyday problems around me, I’m showing it all here. My Studio is designed to help you learn exactly how I do what I do.
