"Lor is a vertical mouse that blurs the line between left-handed and right-handed, asking what would happen if flipping a product for the opposite hand was as simple as looking in a mirror. Instead of selling separate left and right models, Lor breaks the mouse into modular parts that can be rearranged, giving both user groups an equal product experience from the same hardware, without forcing anyone into a symmetrical compromise."
"Lor is built around a central spherical base and two detachable pebble grips that can be attached on either side. Like assembling toy blocks, users decide the shape and orientation, snapping the grips into a left-handed or right-handed configuration. Mirroring happens at the form level, not just in software, so thumb rests, buttons, and support surfaces end up exactly where each hand expects them to be without remapping or awkward reaches."
"The main ergonomic idea is a grip that feels like holding smooth pebbles, designed to protect the wrist during long sessions. The mouse uses soft, rounded forms that encourage a more neutral hand posture than a flat mouse, leaning into the vertical-mouse logic without looking like a medical device. The pebble metaphor keeps the form approachable and hints at a more relaxed, natural grip that feels less technical."
Lor is a vertical mouse that makes handedness configurable through physical assembly rather than offering separate left and right models. The design uses a central spherical base and two detachable pebble-shaped grips that snap onto either side to create left- or right-handed configurations with precise placement of thumb rests and buttons. The pebble grips produce soft, rounded forms and a neutral hand posture that protects the wrist during long sessions while remaining approachable and not medical-looking. The modular system supports shared workspaces and quick switching between hands by physically reorienting the grips in seconds.
