The new UGEARS: Bold, Vibrant, and Unified

Since 2014, UGEARS has captivated minds and hearts worldwide with detailed design and self-propelled 3D wooden puzzles. What began as a Ukrainian startup has blossomed into a global phenomenon, celebrated for merging art, engineering, and education into timeless mechanical marvels. As we step into 2025, we’re excited to announce a transformative milestone: a refreshed brand identity that mirrors our evolution while staying true to our mission of bringing joy by enhancing aesthetics and intellect.

A legacy of creativity and connection

UGEARS was born from a simple yet powerful idea: to make the world of mechanics tangible, accessible, and fun. Each of our 100+ models is laser-cut from premium plywood, requiring no glue or tools. With mechanical actions powered by gears, rubber bands, and gravity, families bond over the assembly, hobbyists relish the challenge, and collectors showcase them as conversation-starting art.

 

The new UGEARS: Bold, Vibrant, and Unified

Change is often a reflection of growth, and our updated brand identity signifies just that. Our previous visual identity has been a recognizable symbol of our dedication to innovation and high-quality craftsmanship. However, as we evolve, it’s essential that our branding evolves with us. 

-Logo & Logomark: The new logo features a confident, wide font symbolizing UGEARS’ established expertise. Beside it, a dynamic logomark merges the letter “U” with our iconic gear, embodying the creativity and precision that define every model.

- Color Palette: Vibrant new hues replace our classic tones, injecting energy and modernity. These colors reflect innovation and joy, signaling an exciting chapter while honoring our roots.

- Mindful Design: From social media to product packaging, our unified aesthetic reinforces clarity and connection. Whether on a shelf or a screen, UGEARS now speaks with one bold, recognizable voice.

 

Sustainability: building a greener future

At UGEARS, we believe creativity shouldn’t come at the planet’s expense. Since our inception, we have been committed to eco-friendly practices in all aspects of our operations. Our puzzles and model kits are made from carefully sourced materials, including high-quality plywood that is both - durable and sustainably harvested.
