Discover the art behind kinetic mobile design as Courtney and Jerrod of Counter Balance guide you through the fundamental principles. You will dive into crafting your very own distinctive mobile, using a range of tools, materials, and techniques giving you the chance to tap into your creativity while embracing the joy of experimenting with balance, color, promotion, and rhythm in the design.

Counter Balance is a collection of kinetic mobiles designed by Courtney and Jerrod Windham, both designers and educators at Auburn University in the School of Industrial + Graphic Design.
