You know that metal umbrella stand gathering dust in your entryway? The one that’s been repurposed into a catch-all for tennis rackets, dog leashes, and that broken tripod you keep meaning to fix? Yeah, that one. Designer Aishwarya Ajith looked at this universal furniture problem and asked a brilliantly simple question: why do we need a permanent umbrella stand when rain is seasonal?
Enter Coilo, an umbrella stand that challenges everything we assume about furniture. It’s not a traditional stand at all. Instead, it’s a rollable mat that transforms into a temporary umbrella holder only when you actually need it. When the skies clear and your umbrellas are tucked away, Coilo returns to its flat form, practically disappearing from your space entirely.
Designer: Aishwarya Ajith
The concept is rooted in what Ajith calls “situational furniture,” objects that exist only when needed and remain visually unobtrusive the rest of the time. It’s a refreshingly honest approach to design that acknowledges how we actually live rather than clinging to outdated notions of what furniture should be.
The inspiration came from observing life in compact spaces, particularly in Indian hostels and shared dormitories where every square foot matters. In these environments, people routinely lay out mats on the floor for group discussions and social gatherings. During monsoon season, wet umbrellas demand immediate attention, dripping all over entryways and creating puddles. But once the rain passes, that urgency evaporates. So why should the solution take up permanent real estate?
Coilo’s design is deceptively simple yet remarkably clever. The mat is crafted from flexible, water-resistant EVA foam that can be rolled into a cylindrical form. Thanks to a simple joint system, the coiled structure achieves surprising stability without requiring complex mechanisms or hardware. Supporting flaps button together in a distinctive pattern that gives the stand character and allows it to accommodate umbrellas of varying heights.
The base plate deserves special mention. It’s made from terracotta clay, a material choice that’s both practical and thoughtful. Terracotta is naturally absorbent, wicking away moisture from wet umbrellas rather than letting it pool on your floor. It’s the kind of detail that reveals genuine problem-solving rather than purely aesthetic decision-making.
What makes Coilo particularly fascinating is how it fits into broader conversations about sustainable design and conscious consumption. We’re living in an era where urban apartments are shrinking, minimalism is trending, and people are questioning whether they really need all the stuff previous generations accumulated. Coilo doesn’t just save space; it challenges the assumption that furniture must be static and permanent.
This philosophy resonates especially with younger generations navigating shared living situations, frequent moves, and smaller living quarters. Students in dormitories, young professionals in co-living spaces, and anyone dealing with limited square footage will immediately grasp Coilo’s appeal. It’s furniture that adapts to your life rather than demanding you adapt to it. The visual design also breaks from traditional umbrella stand aesthetics. Those buttoned flaps create a sculptural quality that makes Coilo a conversation piece when deployed. It looks intentional and interesting rather than purely utilitarian. When rolled flat, it could easily pass as a decorative floor mat or yoga mat, maintaining a presence without announcing itself as single-purpose furniture.
Ajith’s exploration opens up fascinating possibilities for the future of home furnishings. What else could transform and disappear? Could we design coffee tables that fold into wall art? Dining chairs that become storage? Desks that morph into room dividers? Coilo represents more than just a clever umbrella solution. It’s a prototype for how we might rethink everyday objects in an age where flexibility, adaptability, and space efficiency matter more than ever.

A typical small studio or serious hobbyist handles printing across multiple devices and vendors. One machine for paper, maybe another for vinyl, a separate UV printer if you are lucky, and outsourcing for anything textured, cylindrical, or fabric-based. The friction adds up quickly, juggling vendors, minimum orders, and formats that do not quite align. Longer ePrint tries to pull those scattered workflows back into a single, desk-sized footprint, treating printing as something you do in-house across materials and processes instead of planning around what your gear can handle.
Longer ePrint is a dual-head, 3D-texture personal UV printer that behaves more like a tiny print lab than a single-purpose machine. One printhead is dedicated to UV inks for direct printing onto hard goods, while the other can be configured with a dedicated printhead for DTF inks to handle fabric transfers. The same box can print phone cases, embossed wood panels, and heat-press designs for tote bags without swapping hardware, which changes the kinds of projects you can start and finish in an afternoon.

ePrint runs 12 ink channels across two printheads, CMYK color plus six white channels and two varnish channels in the full model. For textured work, all six white channels stack ink simultaneously, building height up to six times faster than a single channel. For flat prints, the dual-head setup can cut time roughly in half while still holding 1,440 DPI resolution. The point is being able to run more experiments and finish more pieces in the same time block without waiting hours between iterations.
The 60mm embossing height pushes ePrint beyond flat graphics into tactile territory. That build-up lets you create braille signage with real raised dots, relief art that catches light and shadow, dimensional logos on cases and plaques, and prototypes that feel like finished products instead of flat mockups. It turns a UV printer into a way to explore form and tactility, not just color and layout, which is a shift for designers used to thinking flat and outsourcing anything that needs actual depth.
ePrint holds twelve 200ml cartridges and runs an open-ink system, so you can use Longer’s inks or third-party options, including DTF inks, low-migration ink formulations, and fluorescent colors. Combined with support for more than 300 materials and a 10mm high-gap printing capability, it can handle wood, acrylic, glass, metal, leather, stone, curved objects, and textured surfaces without the printhead scraping. That flexibility matters when you are testing new products or saying yes to unusual requests beyond the usual phone case rotation.
The machine supports four mechanical modes that each unlock different outputs. Flatbed mode handles panels, cases, and signs up to 310mm x 420mm. Rotary mode spins bottles, tumblers, and cylindrical objects while the heads print, wrapping designs around curves. Transfer film mode prints onto a special substrate first, then lets you laminate or heat-press onto fabric. Conveyor belt printing automates small-batch runs of rigid items like phone cases without repositioning each piece by hand.
The AI-powered studio offers tools like pattern generation, text-to-image, background removal, and product series generation, helping you respond to ideas or client briefs quickly without outsourcing design work. White-ink circulation and auto-cleaning routines keep the heads from clogging, which is usually a pain point with UV printers, while built-in air purification and sub-60dB operation make it more comfortable to run in a small studio as long as you still keep proper ventilation going.
A machine like this changes how you approach printing. Instead of sending work out for anything unusual or saying no to projects that need specific inks, materials, or texture, you can test ideas in-house, move from a sketch to a raised, textured object in a day, and run small batches without committing to huge minimums or buying another specialized tool. For designers, DIY enthusiasts, and small businesses, Longer ePrint feels less like a printer and more like a compact production partner that happens to live on a desk, letting you expand what you make without expanding the square footage or vendor list you need to manage.

Rezvani Motors stirred up the automotive market for armored vehicles in 2017 when they introduced the world to the Tank SUV. The promise of power, luxury, and security targeted for the ultra-rich and famous is barely challenged by other boutique brands like Paramount Marauder, Terradyne Gurkha, Conquest Evade and Karlmann King.
Given the vulnerable world we are living in with unknown threats looming large in a geo-politically sensitive environment, the armored vehicle has more demand than ever. That’s, of course, if you have a fat bank account to afford it. Rezvani has introduced an upgraded version of the Tank, based on the Jeep Wrangler chassis, to offer buyers more options in a lineup that already features beastly options like the Vengeance and the more subtle Dark Knight. On the outside, the tank-like SUV has an even sharper and aggressive presence, while on the inside, there’s even more beef.
Designer: Rezvani Motors
The Irvine-based company has loaded the new Tank with incremental upgrades and a facelift that looks even sharper than the outgoing model. Underneath the hood, it is powered by a hybrid four-cylinder engine that churns out 270 horsepower. Since it’s Rezvani we’re talking about, buyers can go for even more powerful 6.4-liter V-8 engine that produces 500 horsepower, or the mind-numbing 6.2-liter Dodge Demon V8 cracking a 1,000 horsepower on the street. The vehicle gets the optional bulletproof and security package, which according to Rezvani, has the “latest in ballistics armor capable of stopping high caliber weapons and assault rifles.” This time around, the vital components like the fuel tank, radiator, and battery are protected by the Kevlar encasing.
2026 Rezvani has the optional Bond-level additions too, including the thermal night-vision system, run flat tires, electrified doors, underside explosion protection, gas masks for any adversity, and the beefy bumpers to ram down any pursuers. The most interesting addition that makes the Tank 2026 a vehicle fit for spy drama movies is the smoke screen, which releases smoke from the rear to decoy any trackers. The base version gets a four-inch suspension lift for the 37-inch tires, while that can be increased to six inches if you desire 40-inchers. Another optional accessory is the Fox Racing 3.0 Internal Bypass Shocks with DSC. As standard, the vehicle comes with the Dynatec axles and Dynatec ProGrip front and rear brakes.
Base price of the Tank 2026 is $175,000 while the most powerful 1,000 hp variant with the bulletproof options will cost an extra $85,000, and the B6-level version that uses lightweight materials and is capable of resisting high caliber rounds will add $1,45,000 to the base cost. Only 100 examples of the armored SUV will be made to retain exclusivity. The vehicle can be booked right away with a $500 deposit.
