70 years ago on 28th February 1953, Francis Crick and James Watson, working in Cambridge, worked out the double-helix structure of deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA for short, revolutionising life sciences. They both received the Nobel Prize for their discovery. (More about their discovery can be found here.)
Rosalind Franklin was absolutely central to that discovery and should have also got the Nobel Prize with them. It was her x-ray crystallography data that was key, particularly on helical structure.
64 years later, i23 Design was formed. Now you might be wondering what the connection is with the discovery of DNA. Well, there are 23 pairs of chromosomes in human DNA and i23 Design has design running through its DNA. Neat eh? By the way, it’s merely a coincidence that our address is 23 Cedar Court, and the year is 2023. Need we go on?
The double helix structure is echoed in our logo, which combines the characters i, 2 and 3.
But what does the ‘i’ stand for?
Well, the founder of Apple, Steve Jobs, said the ‘i’ in their products stands for internet, individual, instruct, inform and inspire. And who are we to argue with that.
So there you have it, the reason for our name, if you were wondering. And it’s all thanks to that amazing discovery 70 years ago.
