About
Hello, my name is Denis Ryzhkov.
Whyolet is the brand of my products.
"Why?" stands for reasoning, thinking, inventing.
An inventor is a man who asks "Why?" of the universe
and lets nothing stand between the answer and his mind.
Violet, according to Pantone, is unconventional, inventive,
color of individuality, experimentation, visionary thinking, pushing boundaries.
The vast and limitless night sky is symbolic of what is possible.
"Why?" and Violet, visualized as two violet question marks merged together,
became Whyolet
symbol of infinity of what is possible.
But why Whyolet products are unconventional?
What important truth do very few people agree with you on?For me it is to keep it simple and valuable.
Yes, most people agree with it, but very few are able to implement it.
So my focus is to create unconventionally simple, yet valuable products.
