This Window Air Purifier blows fresh aromatic air indoors for a clean, healthy home

Posted on by

While most of the air purifiers refresh the air inside the room – be it fresh air from a window, air conditioner, or air circulating for hours due to the closed indoor environment; there is actually the need for an air purifier that sucks in fresh air from the outdoors and then freshens it up to be really perceived as an “air purifier.” BEBOP Design realizes the importance of designing an air purifier for homes as well as any decent-sized commercial location that can actually bring refreshing air inside without being too heavy on the fragrance which can be a nightmare for people with allergies or sensitive sinusitis.

They’ve come up with the Ventus Air – an air purifier that can be installed onto any existing window frames and ventilates the room with a breath of fresh air – sans the old-fashioned way of constantly filtering the stale air inside the room – that most air purifiers out there do! The radically different air purifier is commissioned for Ventus, a Korean startup that takes pride in its air filtration technology. The air purifier has a very minimal yet attractive design for a clean feel – a monochrome color that gives the assurance of purity, reliability, and calmness. It has a concealed display system, a light strip indicating the air quality and harmful gas indicator, and a magnetic filter lid that has a fabric pull tab.

Ventus Air windowed air purifier can be easily maintained by pulling out the filter and replacing it with the new one when required. Of course, you get a matching remote to operate from the cozy confines of your couch, making it an air purifier tailored for the right intended function.

A friendly portable speaker with a sticky gecko pad feature

Posted on by

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 Headphone Wire Has Already Made a Comeback

Posted on by

Some would argue that design trends never really disappear, they simply come and go. That orbit between popular and not is moving faster than ever and the Meizu Halo headphones are a perfect example.

It seems like it was just yesterday that manufacturers were harnessing the power of Bluetooth in order to ditch wires. The Halo headphones, however, are not only bringing the wire back, they’re highlighting it as a primary style feature of the design even though they’re Bluetooth-equipped. That’s right – these still require recharging to operate “wirelessly” from your device! So what’s the point of the wire? It’s purely aesthetic. Fit with micro-RGB LEDs from tip to tip, the color can be adjusted to the user’s personal taste with one simple adjustment. While some of us will gawk, there is indeed a whole market of ravers and light-up shoe wearers that will flock to these vibrant buds. If nothing else, it’s proof that design isn’t linear.

Beauty with a Reason

blossom_speaker_layout

The appropriately named Blossom Speaker takes inspiration from a blossomed flower and adapts it into a geometric and simplified form. The primary focus behind its design is to create an immersing sound experience for the user without relying on complex engineering and technology, but instead the form of the device.

The audio is projected upwards away from the base of the speaker, the cone shape then projects the sounds in all directions creating a 360-degree listening experience. This audio-dispersing cone that protrudes out of the top of the device retracts into the cylindrical body, this increases its portability while it simultaneously protects the delicate speaker cover.

The minimalistic approach to the design allows for it to suit any style of interior design, and the compact size combined with the absence of wires makes it a very portable speaker! We believe that it would be a beautiful and welcomed addition to any room.

Virtual Reality at your Fingertips

It will probably come as no surprise to you that the Virtual Reality market is growing rapidly; partially due to an increased interest in the field and products becoming more accessible. Zerokey, a Canadian Start-up, are developing a special technology that enables millimetre-level digital interaction, by using your fingers. This technology is being brought to life in the form of the sleek and advanced Zerokey VR Glove.

The complex, technological inner workings of Zerokey are covered by a carefully considered and sleek design. The monochromatic colour scheme allows for a professional aesthetic, while pops of vibrant blue colour give the sense of advanced, intricate technology. The blue elements are actually conductive fibres, they act as wires for sensors that feed the main module.

The core material of the glove is a highly-breathable and elastic microfiber to ensure that the user will remain comfortable during long gaming sessions!

Parrot’s quirky toy drones are slowly growing up

Posted on by
There was a time when Parrot was the name in consumer drones. That's partly because, way back in 2010 when it launched the AR Drone, the DJI Phantom was still some years away. Today, the landscape is a little different: DJI now dominates the skies,...
