Define Signature is a modding project which has been created to compete in the LDLC Modding Trophy 2015, where I represent Fractal Design with a mod inside their Define S chassis on an international stage.
LDLC Modding Trophy is currently in it's third year with the previous years being exclusive to France. I have had the great fortune to have been selected to take part in this version of the competition competing against some of the largest names of modding and PC building. This project will be going up against modding projects created by the following people:
Thomas Scherrer
Peter Brands
Tim Warning
Ronnie Hara
Define Signature is a project inspired by a mix of raw industrial design with a Scandinavian influence. This is where the raw mix of wood and bare aluminium elements come into play with each other. The word "Signature" in the project name draws inspiration from the "S" in "Define S". Since I am representing Fractal Design with their Define S chassis, I wished to keep the overall design features of the outside of the chassis but to put a little twist on it (wrapping side/front window for example), and also to change and innovate the entire inside compartment completely so that I can achieve my design vision.
The inside of the chassis has been totally redone featuring custom hand fabricated panels and plates. These panels have been created so that I could completely change the orientation of the motherboard, GPU and PSU. This also allows the possibility for some interesting water cooling pipe routing which will make this project stand out even more from a regular water cooled set up.
