# Folded Mouse Design Concepts NAK Studio Presents the Portable Folded Mouse Concept By Amy Duong | Published 2024-08-07 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nak-studio-1 References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2024/08/06/foldable-mouse-concept-takes-inspiration-from-foldable-phones/)  Antoine Brieux designed the new mouse concept, which is portable and folded to keep it even more functional. The market already has various [foldable mouses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nintendo-dualscreen) but this stands out as it actually folds instead of bends. The Emergency Folded Mouse has a flat edge and sharp corners and when it is closed, the mouse turns off automatically. Once it is unfolded, it turns on again. It stays at a fixed angle and has an [ergonomic hold](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oloid-ergonomic-mouse). There is a clear plastic version that captures attention with an opaque aluminum object with an angular bend. The Emergency Goldable Mouse takes a standard mouse design that leads to portability, which is an area of design that is being explored more deeply.
