Let MATTY show you around.
The man Behind the objects
Hi there. I’m MATTY.
I’m Matty Benedetto, the creator of Unnecessary Inventions and the designer behind all all things...MATTY. From my studio in Burlington, Vermont, I develop objects with point of view & designed for the internet in mind.
This is where those ideas become actual objects you can take home and own.

Inside MATTY’s studio.
The ideas, experiments, and questionable decisions behind the objects.
Developing the Frankenstein Frames
The design story behind one pair of frames with four different looks.
