modular_wireless_charger_01

Wireless charging units come in a variety of forms aimed at a range of different demographics, and now there is a newcomer to the party, and it brings with it a unique and stylish design!

This intriguing device is Mobile Island, a modular wireless charger with added functionality a toned-down design. At the heart of the product is Ground; the neat wireless charger that carries a simplistic aesthetic with minimal detailing. From this, further wireless chargers can be added as they snap together using magnets that are housed within the sides, allowing more devices can be charged simultaneously.

While wireless charges go someway into tidying up the desk space, there is still room to make the workspace a neater environment, and this is where the third module comes in, ‘Garden’; it is a three-quarter-circle shaped tray that satisfyingly attaches to ‘Ground’ and gives the user a space to store small belongings and stationary. This type of modularity gives lends its self to a plethora of possible additions in the future!

Designers: Jang Won, Acho Kim, Daegwan Kim, Soyoung Ko & Jaewan Choi

The stool with a wood transplant

zero_by_stool_1

What the designers have done with the Zero Per Stool is just ingenious. This stool uses its own waste to build itself! That too in a way that gives it such an incredible character… one that is unique to each stool.

The stool’s legs/base are cut from a sheet of wood. They’re made so that they can be assembled using wood joining techniques. The seat, however, is made from the scrap wood (offcuts) that gets left behind after cutting the legs of the stool out of the rectangular wood piece. The waste pieces are broken up and placed in a mold. Resin is then poured in, binding the pieces together, turning waste into artistic wonder… and officially leaving you with zero wastage and a stool you can’t get your eyes off!

Designers: Jang Won, Kyungsun Hwang, Min-a Kim & Hajin Yoon.

Whoever gets this for their kid is the coolest parent ever! The rocking horse is often the first driver-like experience we all have as little ones. Another unforgettable experience is the first time we sit in our mom or dad’s car and pretend to “drive”.

Designed with these sentiments in mind, this ultramodern rocking horse aims to give kids an Audi of their own! It’s the purest form of the rocking horse, largely inspired by Audi’s design guide. Its polished carbon fiber is in keeping with the brand language and makes it highly durable for years of play!

Designer: Jang Won & Kim Young Min
