Totwoo Wins 3 EPDA Design Awards for Smart Jewelry Innovation
The winners of the 2025 European Product Design Award (EPDA) have officially been announced.
Totwoo has been recognized with three EPDA Design Awards for the Sun & Moon Touch Bracelets, spanning the categories of Jewelry, Fashion & Lifestyle Accessories, and Consumer Electronics.
This rare cross-category recognition highlights Totwoo’s unique position at the intersection of design, technology, and human connection.
A Rare Recognition Across Three Design Categories
Within the EPDA judging system, it is uncommon for a single product to receive awards across multiple categories. Totwoo’s Sun & Moon Touch Bracelets achieved this distinction by demonstrating a complete and cohesive design vision—from concept and aesthetics to interaction and daily use.
By blending fine jewelry craftsmanship, wearable design, and mobile-connected technology, Totwoo has redefined what a “couple bracelet” can be: not just a symbol, but an active emotional connector.
Jewelry Design Award
This award recognizes the bracelets’ aesthetic value as jewelry. Advanced technology is fully concealed beneath a refined exterior, allowing beauty to take priority. The design remains elegant, timeless, and wearable—without visual compromise.
Fashion & Lifestyle Accessories Award
Here, EPDA acknowledged Totwoo’s philosophy of wearability. The bracelet is not treated as a gadget, but as a natural extension of personal style—lightweight, comfortable, and seamlessly integrated into everyday life.
Consumer Electronics Award
Perhaps the most significant recognition, this award affirms a new direction in consumer electronics: devices designed not for data tracking, but for emotional connection. Totwoo represents a shift toward technology that prioritizes human relationships.
Inspired by the Sun and the Moon
Totwoo’s exploration of emotional technology begins with a timeless symbol: the sun and the moon.
They never appear in the sky at the same time, yet they share the same horizon—quietly guarding the world together. This mirrors modern relationships, where partners may not always be physically present, but emotional presence remains constant.
The Sun & Moon design captures this idea through clean, minimal lines that echo celestial forms. It is a visual metaphor for enduring connection and Totwoo’s understanding of companionship beyond distance.

Worn close to the heart, where every vibration feels intimate and personal.Different designs, one shared intention: connection.
From Messages to Moments of Heartbeat
In the age of instant messaging, expressions like “I miss you” often wait in a chat window for a delayed reply.
Totwoo offers a quieter, more immediate alternative.
With a gentle tap on the bracelet, a paired partner’s bracelet lights up and vibrates simultaneously—no text, no screen, no waiting. One touch becomes a message; one glow becomes reassurance.
This transforms the traditional couple’s keepsake into an active emotional link, turning connection into a daily ritual rather than a passive reminder.
A Private Language, Understood by Two
Modern relationships often seek more than expression—they seek confirmation.
Through the Totwoo app, partners can customize light colors and vibration patterns, creating a private language known only to them. Each rhythm becomes a shared code, a silent acknowledgment of presence and care.
When longing receives a response, emotional security follows. Totwoo’s interaction design is quietly reshaping how people express affection across distance.
Today, over 1.1 million moments of “I’m thinking of you” are sent and received through Totwoo each day worldwide—a testament to the universal need for emotional affirmation beyond words.
When Technology Chooses to Serve Emotion
In an era dominated by performance metrics and computing power, Totwoo chooses a different path: technology that serves fundamental human needs—love, understanding, and companionship.
Behind each bracelet lies continuous innovation. The sensing mechanism is refined to ensure every touch is reliably delivered. Structural redesign integrates charging contacts seamlessly, enabling waterproofing and preserving a jewelry-like form. Within a limited space, chips, lights, and motors are precisely arranged and hidden, allowing function to merge with beauty.
Every technical decision serves one purpose: to make expressing love as effortless as breathing, and as dependable as a heartbeat.
Connection does not always require grand gestures. Sometimes, it is a small light that turns on for one person—and only one person—at exactly the right moment.
Somewhere in the world, a silent thought is received, and a gentle glow answers back. This is the quiet ritual Totwoo brings into everyday life.
As time moves forward, connection continues.
Totwoo remains committed to illuminating intimate relationships—so that no moment of longing ever feels alone.
