Air purifier for your little one

What is more important than looking after our own health? Its looking after that of a new-born! PURIO has been designed to make this task just that little bit easier, as well as making the parents busy and unpredictable lifestyle a bit less stressful!

This unique design clips onto the stroller that the little one resides in, and rather ingeniously purifies the air directly in front of them, removing fine dust and pollutants from the air and stopping them from reaching their developing lungs! To elevate the use of PURIO further, a secondary function has been seamlessly integrated into the unique form; mounted on the top of the device is a camera that provides a constant feed to the parent’s smart device, providing them with reassurance!

Designers: Hyeseung Nam & Fountain Studio

Place the cradle in a stroller bar and tilt it to adjust the camera angle.

Inside the filter cartridge, there is a pre-filter to filter out large dust and HEPA filter for purifying fine dust. LED light on the right button informs you when filters need to be replaced.

The application notifies you of today’s air quality and alerts you when air purification is required. Through the camera on the top of PURIO, you can check what your kid is doing in real-time.

A DJ booth you can fit in your backpack

A DJ has to lug around an inconvenient amount of equipment that is far from compact. So, a backpacked-sized alternative is a rather enticing proposal. This is exactly what Stack is, as it compresses the entire set-up into a family of products that are no larger than two 24oz shaker bottles!

Made up of twelve cylindrical modules that each offer a unique function, Stack allows the user to configure their portable DJ booth however they so desire. The studio level of control, combined with the integrated sound system means that the budding DJ can get the party started wherever they are!

Designer: Vince Wang

Stack has everything you need to get a party started: a DJ controller with full EQ system, jogwheels, crossfader, and levels faders in one tube, and a full 2.1 sound system in the other.

All pucks have top and bottom magnetic charging pins, allowing you to charge the entire “stack” at once.

Improving indoor wellbeing in a stylish manner!

At first sight, this device may leave you wondering what its purpose is. Is it a speaker? A wireless Charger? A Smart Hub? Well if you guessed any of these then you would be wrong. Matteo is in fact an extremely attractive air purifier. Designed to subtlety enhance indoor wellbeing, it increases the quality of the air in the compact urban home environment. So, interesting form aside, what else sets it apart from the crowd? Well, concealed within the rounded externals is an intelligent hub that allows the device to adapt the smart cleaning cycles to best cater to the everchanging environment that it is placed within!

Like any product that is destined for a life within the home, its aesthetic had to be considered in great depth; the minimal, playful shape combined with the subtle surface detailing, leads to a beautiful design language that really sets this product apart from the rest!

A handsome, handsfree wireless hairdryer!

We put so much thought and consideration into our homes interior design, that it’s just not acceptable for it to be aesthetically compromised by the unsightly appearance of an abandoned hairdryer and the abundance of cable that comes with it. The Fondre Hairdryer addresses this issue, whilst also bringing with it an additional layer of functionality. Storing hairdryers isn’t always an easy task, their awkward form doesn’t make them a draw-friendly device, so why not allow their form to harmoniously compliment the exciting décor of the room.

The wireless design can be used both when it is docked on its base or when it’s held in the user’s hand. I bet your hairdryer can’t do that! There is no denying that the aesthetics have been considered in great depth; from the beautifully simplistic form down to the carefully considered CMF elements. It certainly makes for one desirable hairdryer!

AI is hitting the streets!

AI is rapidly integrating itself into our home-life; from smart speakers through to smart ovens, and its dramatically changing how we go about our lives. However, the Human Integration Support Robot takes this a step further, as it brings the technology out of the home and into the streets! Designed to provide assistance to lost commuters, this futuristic concept gives us a glimpse into the future of our cities. It isn’t just another big lump of metal either, the bold exterior carries a welcoming persona that makes this device approachable; this has been achieved through the introduction of a human-like hand that protrudes from the central body!

The cylindrical form not only gives it a contemporary aesthetic, but also gives it a 360 degree user-interaction zone, allowing it to be communicated with from every angle!

Piece of art or an air purifier?

Forget about its completely justifiable functionality, we want a Coway FAB purely to admire! This undeniably attractive and beautifully considered example of design has been created to provide the domestic environment with a supply of clean, fresh air, as well as a fresh aesthetic! Designed with the sole aim of fitting harmoniously within a room, FAB carries a wonderfully unique aesthetic that forces it to stand out from its more conventional competitors. The clever combination of the soft fabric finish and sharp linear lines leads to a visually dramatic juxtaposition that we can’t help but love. Aesthetics aside, the fabric finish also brings with it a functional benefit; the air inlet that is concealed behind it sucks the uncleansed air through the material and into the filter!

Another aspect of the design which must not be ignored is the attention to user experience; a clear and accessible carry-handle, tactile buttons and simplistic interface are just a few features that ensure a pain-free operation!

Designer: Hyunjin Park of OFFOF

It is designed using the basic elements of dots, lines, and surfaces. In a neat and unique form, it becomes an object in its own space.

The vivid orange-red color gives you a vintage feel, Blue suits you everywhere and the Light Green Color gives you a soft feel.

The handle in the center of the product increases the mobility of the product. The operating button is white, the same color as the body of the product, and is designed to contrast the fabric color.

It also uses soft rubber materials to provide not only visual comfort but also tactile comfort.

The angle of the air outlet blades of the air purifier is 45 degrees, so air comes out along the wings and breaks into the walls to deliver a wider range of fresh air.

The fabric is an air inlet and has two filtering effects. A structure designed to allow air to be inhaled by a fabric can be easily replaced by stripping the fabric.

Choose the color you want to and match to make your own air purifier.

When historic Italian Velocino bicycle meet modern technology

With electric scooters and skateboards rising rapidly in popularity due to their unrivaled ability to carve their way through our over-populated streets, we have seen an influx of unique concepts being generated. However, none of them have quite compared to this remake of the Velocino Bike! Designed to be as light and compact as possible, without compromising the comfort of the user, this unique mode of transport carries an aesthetic that is far different from anything we have seen before! This individuality has been enhanced further with the retro design style that has been applied to the concept. Oversized integrated lights, off-white tires and a tubular construction have been tied together with the traditional color scheme that is black with brown accents. This certainly makes a change from the over-engineered alternatives that we are used to seeing!

Designers: Haemin Kim & PDF HAUS

History of Velocino. Velocino was originally commissioned by Benito Mussolini around the early 40s. He wanted to offer Italians a compact, light and handy vehicle that people could store at home or anywhere else it might take them. Although this model seems like a very convenient option for city cycling and carrying on public transportation, it never took off in the old days. The project was canceled around the time that Italy decided to join World War 2.

A friendly portable speaker with a sticky gecko pad feature

Simplistic design is quite often the most successful, and the Gabby Smart 360 Speaker proves this perfectly. With an insane amount of detail being paid to the color, material and finish of the device, the final result is a strikingly simple yet extremely attractive device! A sand-like texture covers the cylindrical form, which is broken up by linear lines and sharp edges! The underside of the Gabby Smart speaker reveals its party-trick; the sticky gecko pad allows the speaker to latch onto a variety of surfaces. This adds to the device’s fun and friendly personality, as well as setting it apart from its more conventional counterparts!

The wall-mounted air purifier and clock for compact apartments

The Air Hole is the wall-mounted air purifier that has been designed to live within even the most compact of studio apartments! Space can be limited within inner-city accommodation, but this should not restrict people from accessing clean air, especially when the air outside can be filled with toxins. The wall-mountable air purifier demands little space within the home, making it a desirable alternative to the floor standing variants we have become accustomed to. Airhole also has a rather subtle secondary feature that has been incorporated into the design to elevate its functionality even further; a digital clock has been seamlessly integrated into the face of the unit!

Make coffee now, enjoy it later

Everyone enjoys their coffee being made in a very particular and unique-to-them way, so is a coffee lover really able to enjoy an espresso made by a different person? Well, this question stemmed the creation of COSSO, the coffee machine that gifts the user with a capsule of coffee! Prior to leaving the comfort of their homes, COSSO enables the user to prepare the expressos that they will require to get them through the day-ahead! Once prepared, the user can store the capsules in the warm case that carries a beautifully sleek and clean aesthetic, which is shared by the coffee machine itself!

There is no denying that this concept advances the coffee making experience a few steps further, so could you see yourself using this?

Cosso comes with espresso up and down. When it comes up, it fills the capsule, and when it comes down, it enters the espresso cup.
