This sliding keyboard reveals a hidden compartment!

Posted on by

Product designer Yeong Seok Go has created a keyboard that manages to pack the utility of a full-sized keyboard and the portability of a compact Bluetooth keyboard all into one! Most Bluetooth keyboards aren’t equipped with a number pad. On the other hand, they are extremely space-efficient. And there comes in Seok Go’s ‘Hidekey’.

But Hidekey has a secret! Its number pad is in hiding. Tucked away on the backside of the keyboard, a quick sliding movement reveals the number pad. The pad can be easily pulled out whenever needed. Once it has been used, you can effortlessly slide it back in. This ensures you always have a number pad at your disposal, improving the efficiency of your work, without taking up too much space.

Besides its nifty number pad, the keyboard has been amped with Bluetooth connectivity. Lithium-ion batteries ensure that it serves as a wireless keyboard for hours! However, it also functions as a wired keyboard, on utilizing a C type cable. Featuring a crisp pentagram structure, Hidekey is available in two pretty pastel colors; Coral and Blue. Functioning as a wireless and wired keyboard with a disappearing number pad, Hidekey is highly-functional and will also fit perfectly into our nimble work bags!

A wall-mounted router that keeps your signal amplified and you organized

Posted on by

As necessary as internet routers are, the abundance of wires and disarray that they bring with them isn’t welcome within our workspace. Whilst hiding the router beneath the desk seemingly solves the aforementioned issues, the signal strength and reliably suffers, leading to frustrating drops in signal!

A WALL ROUTER has been designed with these issues firmly in mind, as it relocates the device to a location that doesn’t only elevate its position within the room, but also its functionality! The wall-mounted device is free from any obstructions, allowing it to provide a clear and uninterrupted signal effectively throughout the home. Due to the router now being visible, its only appropriate for it to carry a more considered aesthetic… and this device certainly does; its clean, fuss-free design paired with the 2-in-1 cable leads to a reserved appearance that doesn’t demand attention. The integrated ring of light on the front not only adds to the visual interest, but also acts as a visual indicator; the brighter the light, the stronger the signal!

Bright light means good signal strength, and dark light means bad signal strength.

This hyper-ergonomic Xbox controller concept makes gaming far more comfortable

Posted on by

Yeong Seok Go has a few ideas for the Xbox controller. While Xbox’s native controller remains one of the most ergonomically comfortable controllers out there, Yeong Seok believes it can be pushed a couple of steps further. Presenting what could be the most comfortable and subsequently enjoyable gaming experience ever, these conceptual Xbox controllers easily make me want to ask Microsoft why they never went in this particular direction.

Yeong Seok’s gaming controllers opt for a split dual-controller design, like the Nintendo Wii or the Switch (strangely enough Nintendo’s been much more receptive of this setup than any other gaming hardware company). With two halves of the controller in each hand, you’re more at liberty to sit comfortably and move your hands in a natural manner as you game, punching them at an invisible enemy as you churn out kill-combos, or aiming/recoiling with your hands as you fire triggers, or even turning them simultaneously as you steer a car. The split design’s organic form also makes it much more ergonomic to hold onto, letting it almost conform to the negative space of your palm, and therefore making gaming on the Xbox more comfortable, more natural, and as a result more immersive!
