Ultra-thin laptop stand is as slim as a credit card, but uses origami to prop your laptop up




Measuring 0.1 inches, the MetaStand Pro might easily be the contender for the slimmest laptop stand in the world. However, thanks to the power of origami, it can hold the weight of your laptop or tablet, angling it for a comfortable working experience.

The MetaStand Pro offers the ability to prop your laptop or tablet up at a variety of angles for ease of use. Using a clever origami-inspired design, offers a mix of slimness and strength, letting you place your gadget at as many as 4 different angles comfortably without breaking a sweat.

The stand’s collapsible design is universal and device-agnostic, working with laptops, notebooks, ultrabooks, and tablets alike. At 3mm thin when closed, it sits flat inside your backpack or underneath your device when not in use, and immediately folds open when you need it, taking up to weights of 9 kilos.

Created by Ergomi Design, the stand comes made from vegan PU leather, with a reinforced inner structure that gives it its load-bearing ability. When in use, it offers you the ability to angle your laptop or tablet for an easy viewing/typing experience that causes less neck, back, and wrist strain over time. While propped up, it still promotes active airflow to keep your laptop cool during use… and a nifty little leather tab on the base prevents your laptop or tablet from slipping off while in use!

The MetaStand Pro measures 10.4 inches vertically, and 8.3 inches horizontally, giving it about the same footprint as a large-ish iPad Pro while being about as slim as a credit card. The stand comes in 4 subtle colors and costs $29.

For another $20, Ergomi Design will even throw in a Transformer ID Badge, an ID card-holder that uses a similar ergonomic folding technique to transform into a nifty little smartphone stand! The MetaStand Pro and Transformer ID Badge deliver worldwide and begin shipping in April 2022.

The ‘MagEasy’ wallet comes with magnetic modules that let you easily organize your belongings




Titled the MagEasy Badge, this nifty little number upgrades the oh-so-boring lanyard into something that’s much more functional, versatile, and easy-to-access. Instead of shoving all your cards and cash into a bifold that sits firmly pressed against your behind, the MagEasy Badge brings everything front-and-center by suspending your belongings around your neck. Ultimately, it still looks like a lanyard, although it contains much more… and if you’re the kind of person who works at a place that requires RFID tap-to-access employee cards, this might just be the most perfect little thing for you.

Overcome workplace challenges with readiness, orderliness and calmness.

The system declutters your life and clears the way for creativity.

Traditionally, a lanyard has just been a fancy way of strapping an ID or an access card around your neck. It’s an easy way to have people identify you, or systems recognize you and allow you to access parts of a building. The lanyard hasn’t really changed in the couple of decades (or centuries, if you look up Wikipedia) that it’s existed, but LHiDS has a clever idea. Instead of carrying a lanyard with a card around your neck, and a wallet with your other cards in your back pocket, why not merge the two into some sort of super-lanyard that carries everything you need right where you can access it (and potentially prevent a pickpocket from quietly stealing it too).

The MagEasy Badge, envisioned by LHiDS Creative and designed by Ergomi Design, sits suspended from your neck, and features a bifold design that’s about as spacious as a wallet. Outwardly, it looks like a lanyard with a card, but to the wearer, it’s much more. It has a dedicated windowed slot for your ID card, as well as additional slots for your payment cards, membership cards, and even a couple of banknotes. It also comes equipped with one of those retractable tether systems, which means you can use your lanyard to tap on RFID machines at work, and can be worn/carried around your neck, by your pant’s belt loop, or even strapped to your bag.

Things get really interesting when you start looking at the ‘MagEasy’ part of the equation. The wallet/lanyard comes with 8 internal magnets that allow it to snap shut, but they additionally also let you easily attach modules to your wallet, expanding its abilities. Among LHiDS’s ecosystem of magnetic modules exists a phone-stand, a notepad, and even a tiny pocket mirror that you can easily snap on or snap off. The MagEasy Badge’s modules allow you to build your own ‘super-lanyard’ that acts as a mini organizer, holding your cash and cards while also acting as your notepad or mirror (going well above and beyond what your average wallet can do). At the same time, it ensures all your stuff is well within reach – either around your neck or by your waist… or better still, on your desk!

The magnetic feature plays a large role in ‘organizing’ your belongings, not just around your neck, but on your desk too. MagEasy’s organizing system lets you easily snap all your magnetic modules to a vertical board on your desk, almost like you’d attach notes to a softboard or whiteboard. The organizing system is MagEasy’s way of de-cluttering your desk too (aside from your wallet) and putting everything in an organized, easy-to-access format. Aside from being able to snap your wallet/lanyard to the organizing system, you’ve even got stationery-holders, cable-ties, and card-holders, that bring the magic of modular, magnetic design to your life, whether it’s around your neck or at your desk… so you’re 100% productive and organized all the time!
