This Wooden Basket Becomes a Low Table When You Flip It Upside Down

There’s a familiar moment that happens when you carry food, cups, and random essentials to a park, balcony, or floor seating setup and then realize you still need a stable surface to put any of it on. Most people improvise with a bag or a corner of a blanket. Small-space living and casual gatherings reward objects that can do two jobs without taking up twice the storage, but most furniture is still designed around one fixed purpose.

This Convertible Basket Table concept works as both a carry basket and a low table in one form. By simply inverting it, the basket becomes a stable table surface suitable for picnics or casual indoor use. The design combines storage, portability, and easy transformation, making it ideal for relaxed gatherings and compact living spaces.

Designer: Siya Garg

In basket mode, the structured wooden body has a built-in handle and a container that can hold the messy mix of picnic items, fruit, napkins, a book, or a small speaker. The form feels sturdy rather than floppy, carrying like a proper object with a clear handle instead of a tote that collapses when you set it down. That sturdiness is what makes the flip transformation credible. It’s definitely not a soft bag pretending to be furniture.

Once inverted and unfolded, it becomes a low table that works with floor cushions, outdoor blankets, or a casual living room setup. Low tables are the unsung heroes of flexible spaces. They work as coffee tables, game surfaces, or quick work perches, but they’re rarely portable. This one travels in your hand and arrives as a surface, which is a surprisingly underexplored idea.

A square knot side lock keeps the form secure when needed. It’s a rope-based closure that tightens the sides without complicated latches, click mechanisms, or hardware that will eventually strip or break. The whole thing is quiet, tool-free, and easy to replace if the rope wears out, which fits the picnic vibe better than snapping plastic clips would.

The build draws on traditional woodworking throughout. Pattern making involved pine wood in alternating grain directions and a chevron pattern using alternating teak and pine strips. Assembly relies on mortise and tenon joints and sliding mortise and tenon joints to hold the structure together without screws, so the connections are strong enough to handle the repeated flipping and carrying that the concept demands.

The design doesn’t ask you to change how you live, it just quietly accommodates the way you already move through the day. A basket when you’re going somewhere, a table when you arrive, and a warm wooden object that looks like someone actually made it rather than assembled it from a flat pack.

Custom-built 96,000mAh power bank charges your laptop, phone, and even runs small appliances off-grid

For power users loaded with a laptop, tablet, drone, a robot, and, of course, a smartphone, the ordinary power bank options do not make the cut. The amount of power required to keep these gadgets juiced up is considerable, especially when on the go. The only solution is a custom-made power bank that suffices all the needs of your power-hungry gadgets.

A custom-built portable power station offers a high-capacity solution for people who need to run multiple devices without reliable access to wall power. Standard consumer power banks are often too limited for users carrying a laptop, phone, tablet, router, and other gear at the same time, especially in remote or mobile situations. To solve this problem, creator Luq1308 developed the Omnibus 4×8, a DIY backpack-friendly power bank with enormous capacity and flexible output options.

Designer: Luq1308

The heart of this project is a dense battery pack made from 32 brand-new 18650 lithium-ion cells arranged in a 4S8P configuration. Each cell is rated at 3000 mAh, and when assembled into the pack and scaled for usable voltage, the complete system delivers roughly 96,000 mAh, equivalent to about 345 watt-hours (Wh) of stored energy. This substantial capacity makes it suitable for powering a range of electronics for prolonged periods without recharging. Critical to the build is a battery management system (BMS) rated for 4S and 30 amps. The BMS monitors and balances the individual cells, prevents overcharging and deep discharge, and includes multiple safety fuses. The system also draws very little power at rest, with a standby current of less than 400 microamps, helping to preserve stored energy when the unit is not in active use.

The Omnibus 4×8 offers a wide range of outputs to suit both everyday gadgets and more demanding equipment. There are four USB-C ports, each capable of delivering up to 36 watts, which is enough to charge phones and tablets simultaneously. A 100 W bidirectional USB-C port supports fast laptop charging and can also accept power input from compatible charging sources. For broader custom needs, a DC jack provides adjustable outputs between 2.7 V and 20 V, and a high-wattage XT60 connector can handle loads exceeding 400 W. A dedicated 150 W AC outlet enables the use of small appliances through an inverter, expanding the range of devices that can be supported.

Inside the power station, an ESP32-C3 microcontroller oversees system operations. It reads real-time data such as voltage, current, and temperature from sensors and displays this information on a 1.3-inch OLED screen with simple navigation buttons. Four temperature sensors monitor the battery pack, heatsinks, and inverter, and dual 40 mm cooling fans are triggered as needed to manage heat during high loads. Custom aluminum heatsinks with thermal pads are included to further reduce thermal stress.

The enclosure combines hand-cut G10 fiberglass plates for strength with 3D-printed ABS plastic sides in a subdued matte black finish. Brass spacers and mesh vents enhance airflow and protect internal components while maintaining a rugged aesthetic suitable for outdoor use. Internally, thick-gauge silicone wiring and a perfboard distribution bus with fuses connect the various modules safely and efficiently.

One notable feature of this DIY build is its adaptability. The inverter was modified to work across the full battery voltage range, and the system can accept solar input with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) for efficient off-grid recharging. All design files have been made open source on GitHub, allowing others to replicate or expand on the concept.

Virginia Sin’s KEEP Collection Makes Order Look Like Art

There’s a certain satisfaction in putting things exactly where they belong. Keys on the hook. Jewelry in a tray. Pens in their place. It sounds mundane, but anyone who’s experienced it knows it’s anything but. I am not the most organized person in the world but whenever I see well-designed stationery or office supplies, I feel the need to get them just to have something interesting looking in my workspace.

Virginia Sin, the Brooklyn-based ceramics designer and founder of SIN, built her latest collection around that very feeling. The KEEP Collection is three pieces: the FORMARA Organizer, the ARCHIVA Tray, and the CACHE Organizer. That’s it. No sprawling lineup, no unnecessary additions. Just three carefully considered ceramic objects designed to hold the small things that tend to scatter across your desk, dresser, or entryway table.

Designer: Virginia Sin

What makes KEEP different from your average catchall tray is how it treats visibility as a feature, not an oversight. The pieces are shaped to encourage intentional placement rather than concealed storage, so your objects remain visible and accessible at all times. The soft curves and contained volumes aren’t just pretty to look at; they’re doing quiet, practical work. Sin described the collection as “a meditation on how form holds space: for objects, for order.” She’s not just making storage. She’s making something you’d want to look at even when it’s empty.

Each piece has its own personality. The FORMARA Organizer ($148) is the most organic of the three. With two gentle compartments flowing side by side, it recalls the shape of a bamboo shoot split open or water running through carved channels. It’s the one you’d reach for when you want your jewelry or hair accessories somewhere beautiful, not just somewhere reachable. It’s perfect to also place some notebooks or paper materials in it since it’s high enough.

The ARCHIVA Tray ($120) takes the opposite approach. Its clean edges and angular planes recall the structure of an architectural model, sharp, balanced, and quietly commanding. At 10.5 inches long, it’s the workhorse of the collection, perfect for corralling pens, notes, or the rotating cast of small objects that always end up on a desk. It looks like something you’d find in a very well-edited design studio, which is exactly the point.

Then there’s the CACHE Organizer ($120), and it might be the most quietly clever of all. Its triangular form transforms what is essentially an everyday fold into something that feels like a gesture. The depth makes it practical for taller items like markers, scissors, or rolled-up sketches, but the shape gives it enough visual presence to hold its own as a sculptural object. At 8.5 inches long and 4 inches tall, it fits comfortably on a nightstand or shelf without demanding attention.

All three pieces are handmade in stoneware at SIN’s Brooklyn studio and finished in a warm bone colorway that sits somewhere between cream and natural clay. The matte finish keeps the focus on form rather than surface, which is the right call. These pieces are about shape doing the heavy lifting.

SIN is no small name in the design world. Virginia Sin’s work has been featured in Architectural Digest, The New York Times, and Goop, and her porcelain paper plates were used at Eleven Madison Park. The KEEP Collection is the latest chapter in a body of work that consistently asks what everyday objects can look like when someone genuinely thinks them through.

The collection lands at exactly the right cultural moment. There’s a growing appetite for owning fewer, better things. Pieces that earn their spot on a shelf. Design that doesn’t shout. KEEP fits that conversation without feeling like it was made for it. The forms feel too considered, too quiet, too genuinely useful to be trend-driven. That’s the mark of design built to last. The KEEP Collection is available now at virginiasin.com.

5 Best Desk Accessories That Turn Your Workspace Into a Minimalist Studio

Your desk says more about you than you think. It isn’t just a surface—it’s a quiet reflection of how you work, how you think, and how seriously you take the space where ideas are born. The minimalist studio aesthetic isn’t about stripping everything bare; it’s about choosing objects that genuinely earn their place. Every piece should serve a purpose and feel entirely deliberate. A considered desk doesn’t just organize—it inspires.

From gravity-defying pens to waterproof notebooks built to outlast everything you throw at them, the design world is quietly rethinking what it means to be at your desk. This list gathers five accessories that don’t just look good—they change how you work. Whether you’re a freelancer building a mobile studio, a creative professional craving calm, or someone who simply believes tools should match the quality of their thinking, these picks deliver.

1. Levitating Pen 2.0: Cosmic Meteorite Edition

The Levitating Pen 2.0 Cosmic Meteorite Edition isn’t the kind of thing you tuck away in a drawer. Balanced at a precise 23.5-degree angle on a spacecraft-inspired pedestal, it hovers in place as it belongs behind glass—and arguably, it does. Crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum, shaped from a single block of material, it’s as tactile as it is visually appealing. A flick sends it spinning for up to 20 seconds, which sounds like a trick until you realize it genuinely helps you think and refocus between tasks.

What sets this edition apart from any other writing instrument is its tip—a genuine fragment of the Muonionalusta meteorite, one of the oldest ever discovered, predating Earth itself. Writing with it carries a strange, grounding quality that’s difficult to explain until you’ve held it. The premium Schmidt ink cartridge inside delivers a smooth, reliable experience, and the magnetic cap snaps shut with quiet, satisfying precision. The entire object settles into a minimalist desk layout with an authority that only truly considered design can project naturally.

Click Here to Buy Now: $399.00

What We Like

  • The meteorite tip connects the act of writing to a material that predates the planet itself.
  • The spin function delivers genuine cognitive value, supporting creative focus between tasks.

What We Dislike

  • At $399, this is collector territory—a significant ask for everyday stationery.
  • The pedestal demands dedicated desk real estate, which works against ultra-minimal setups.

2. Dynamic Folio

If your iPad has become your primary creative tool, the MOFT Dynamic Folio is the stand it’s been waiting for. Built as a single-piece structure that folds into a workstation, lifting the iPad two full inches off the surface, it shifts posture meaningfully without requiring any complicated setup procedure. What separates it from comparable stands is how smoothly it transitions between modes—one flip moves you from active creation to relaxed viewing without the clunky two-handed repositioning that most alternatives demand of you.

For anyone logging serious hours at a creative desk, neck strain is a quiet but compounding tax on productivity that accumulates gradually across sessions. The Dynamic Folio addresses this directly, reducing neck strain by at least 50 percent in both creation and entertainment positions. The angle adjustment is icon-guided: two circles for a flatter, reclined position and two lines for a steeper working angle. When the session ends, it folds flat and disappears into any bag without resistance. For the mobile creative, this is a quietly essential kit.

What We Like

  • The single-piece structure sets up in one motion with no extra components to manage.
  • A 50 percent reduction in neck strain is an ergonomic improvement that compounds meaningfully over time.

What We Dislike

  • The icon-guided angle system has a short but real learning curve for first-time users.
  • Its value is closely tied to iPad-centric workflows and doesn’t adapt well to mixed-device setups.

3. M NOTE

Sticky notes have a quiet design problem nobody talks about: they curl. The moment a note starts peeling at its corner, the information it holds becomes harder to read and easier to lose, which defeats the entire point of having written it down. M NOTE from Bravestorming solves this with a dual-material approach that combines a magnetic backing with a reusable adhesive layer, keeping notes flat and secure against whiteboards, glass panels, and wooden desks alike. No unfolding, no repositioning—just consistently readable information exactly where you left it.

What makes M NOTE genuinely useful in a minimalist workspace is its adaptability across surface types. On metal, the magnetic backing does the adhesion work entirely. On non-metal surfaces, the reusable adhesive steps in—releasing cleanly, leaving no residue, and repositioning without damaging what it’s applied to. Notes can be written on, cleared, and reused, which cuts the paper waste that most desk setups generate almost invisibly. Bravestorming has taken one of the most throwaway items in any modern office and built something designed to stay indefinitely.

What We Like

  • The dual magnetic and adhesive backing works across metal, glass, and wood surfaces without accommodation.
  • Flat, curl-free notes keep information consistently visible throughout the working day.

What We Dislike

  • Reusable adhesive degrades gradually with heavy, repeated repositioning over time.
  • The magnetic backing only activates on metal surfaces, limiting one of its two core functions.

4. Orbitkey Desk Mat

Most desks don’t have a clutter problem—they have a structure problem. The Orbitkey Desk Mat addresses this with quiet intelligence, creating a defined visual zone that makes the act of organizing feel natural rather than forced. Available in Black and Stone across two sizes, it suits both compact setups and expansive studio tables without demanding that you rethink the whole room around it. The toolbar keeps stationery and small accessories within immediate reach, while the overall layout keeps everything purposeful and within the logic of a genuinely considered workspace.

What makes the Desk Mat more than a surface upgrade is the document hideaway built beneath the top layer. Loose papers, reference notes, and half-finished ideas slide underneath and stay flat, accessible, and out of visual range until you actually need them. It’s an elegant solution to a problem every desk accumulates quietly over time—the slow migration of paper that eventually surrounds the work instead of supporting it. With two colors and two sizes to choose from, the Desk Mat earns its place not just as a design object but as the organizing logic your workspace has been missing.

What We Like

  • The document hideaway keeps loose papers accessible without letting them visually take over the desk.
  • Two sizes and two colorways make it adaptable to almost any workspace scale and aesthetic.

What We Dislike

  • The defined toolbar space may feel restrictive for users with a larger collection of daily-use desk tools.
  • Its impact is most pronounced on consistently active desks—minimal users may find less need for the full feature set.

5. Nuka Eternal Stationery

The Nuka Eternal Stationery set begins with a simple question: What if your notebook never had to end? The answer is a waterproof, tear-proof notebook paired with a metal alloy pencil tip that writes with the smooth consistency of a traditional pencil but requires no sharpening and never breaks. Pages clear completely with the Nuka Magic Eraser and accept fresh writing immediately. For a minimalist desk, this is precisely the kind of object that earns permanent residency without asking for maintenance, restocking, or replacement in return.

Beyond the environmental logic, the Eternal Stationery has a tactile appeal that’s hard to convey without handling it. The metal alloy tip writes consistently across the notebook’s waterproof surface, and the notebook itself handles spills, rough commutes, and outdoor sessions without registering them as damage worth acknowledging. It suits a specific type of person: someone who values fewer objects doing more, who finds calm in not constantly replacing what they depend on, and who wants tools that stay as capable on day one hundred as they were on day one.

What We Like

  • The write-erase-repeat system eliminates paper waste and removes the need to restock entirely.
  • Waterproof and tear-proof construction means this notebook works as hard as you do without extra care.

What We Dislike

  • Losing the Nuka Magic Eraser disables the reusable function with no common alternative to substitute.
  • Ink-dependent writers will need time to adjust to the feel of the metal alloy tip in practice.

Every Object Earns Its Place

A minimalist desk isn’t built by accident. It’s built through deliberate choices—objects selected as much for what they do as for how they sit in the space around them. The five accessories on this list share that quality. None of them asks for attention. They earn it through function, through material honesty, and through design that respects the surface it occupies. That’s the distinction between a cluttered desk and a curated one, and it sharpens every time you sit down to work.

Whether you start with the levitating pen’s quiet theatre or the Eternal Stationery’s unassuming permanence, each of these pieces shifts something in how your desk feels to work at. The best studio setups don’t come together when you add more—they come together when every object you keep is one you’d choose again without hesitation. These five make that case without announcing it. They simply belong there, and in a minimalist workspace, belonging without noise is exactly the point.

EDITOR'S QUOTE:

The vivo V70 proves that a clear camera identity and premium materials still matter at this price.

The mid-range smartphone segment is crowded in ways that make individual products hard to distinguish. Specs converge, designs flatten, and most phones feel interchangeable within days. vivo’s V70 enters that space with a clear point of view: a ZEISS-co-engineered telephoto camera tuned for stage photography and travel, a large battery built for long days, and a physical design that genuinely tries to look and feel like something worth keeping.

The v70 also introduces the Golden Hour edition, the most visually expressive option in the lineup, with an etched glass back, an aerospace-grade aluminum frame, and a ZEISS camera module with serious hardware inside. Running OriginOS 6 on a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4, it promises a telephoto-first camera experience for concerts and travel, backed by a 6,500mAh battery. Does the full package deliver on all of it? Read on.

Designer: vivo

Aesthetics

Of all the V70’s color options, the Golden Hour edition is the one most worth talking about. vivo uses a specialized chemical etching process to form micron-scale texture on the back glass, creating a diffuse reflection that reads as refined matte from a distance but reveals subtle warmth in direct light. It’s fingerprint-resistant and smooth without feeling slippery, a noticeably more considered finish than the glossy or painted backs that dominate this price tier.

What’s more surprising is that the back doesn’t stay a single color. Depending on the viewing angle and ambient lighting, it shifts toward a cooler, slightly bluish hue you wouldn’t expect from a finish called Golden Hour. That unexpected chromatic movement makes it more visually engaging than a standard gradient, the kind of surface detail that keeps catching your eye without you fully understanding why.

Around the front, the aerospace-grade aluminum alloy frame wraps a flat display with ultra-thin bezels measuring just 1.25 mm on the sides. Rounded corners soften the silhouette without cheapening it, and the flat screen is a deliberate departure from curved-edge designs that can distort content near the edges. The overall impression is controlled and considered rather than flashy, which suits the V70’s personality well.

On the back, the camera module is a rounded metallic rectangle sitting just 3.29mm above the surface, low enough that the phone doesn’t rock noticeably on a table. Three lens rings and a ZEISS badge keep the composition clean without feeling crowded. It’s a well-executed rear panel that reinforces the premium identity without needing extra ornamentation to make the point.

Ergonomics

At 194g light and 7.59mm thick in the Golden Hour configuration, the vivo V70 feels present without being heavy. The matte AG glass provides enough grip for confident one-handed use without a case, and the flat sides and rounded corners make it comfortable to hold at its screen size. Weight distribution is balanced, which matters more for all-day carry than any single spec on a data sheet.

The 3D Ultrasonic Fingerprint Scanning 2.0 is one of the more underrated features here. It works reliably with damp fingers, meaning no frustrating tap-and-retry cycle after a workout or a skincare routine. Best of all, it’s located a good distance away from the bottom, so you don’t have to precariously shift your hand from its natural holding position just to unlock the phone.

Performance

Under the hood, the vivo V70’s Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 with LPDDR5X memory and UFS 4.1 storage handles everyday tasks and multitasking without hesitation, and a 4,200mm² vapor chamber keeps sustained performance steady during longer camera sessions. It’s not a chipset that headlines benchmark charts, but it delivers consistent, smooth day-to-day performance, which is more relevant to what the V70 is actually designed for than theoretical peak numbers.

The 6.59-inch 1.5K OLED runs at 120Hz with 459 PPI and peaks at 5,000 nits local brightness, which holds up well in direct sunlight and makes reviewing photos outdoors genuinely practical. Colors are rich without being oversaturated, and the 1.07-billion color depth makes gradient-heavy AI-edited shots look smooth rather than banded. It’s one of the better mid-range displays available at this price tier right now.

The camera system’s two stars are the 50MP main and 50MP periscope telephoto. The main uses a Sony LYT-700V sensor with a 1/1.56-inch surface area and OIS, delivering consistent, detailed portraits across daylight and mixed lighting. The telephoto uses a 1/1.95-inch sensor with its own OIS and a periscope structure that enables 10x zoom in a compact body. Both cameras consistently outperform what you’d expect at this price.

Of the three rear cameras, the 8MP ultra-wide is where things get more ordinary. It’s functional for casual wide shots, but the gap in detail and dynamic range between it and the main and telephoto cameras is noticeable. Given the vivo V70’s travel ambitions, wide landscape shots will come out looking more ordinary than portraits taken at the same destination. The phone’s real camera personality clearly lives in the other two lenses.

AI Stage Mode is a genuine differentiator if you attend live events regularly. At 10x zoom from 10m to 20m away, the AI Image Enhancement Algorithm and AI Style Portrait Technology combine to pull facial detail and expression clarity from performers under challenging stage lighting. It won’t replace a dedicated camera at that distance, but for a phone that fits in your jacket pocket, the results hold up surprisingly well.

Video gets a meaningful upgrade with 4K 60fps, the first time the vivo V series has offered this, and footage looks cinematic when lighting cooperates. AI Audio Noise Eraser in post-editing selectively reduces wind noise, crowd chatter, or ambient sound from recorded clips. It sounds like a spec sheet bullet point until you actually try cleaning up a concert recording with it, and then it becomes a feature you’d miss on another phone.

Battery life is a genuine strength. The 6,500mAh BlueVolt battery with 90W FlashCharge handles a full day of heavy use and then some, including heavy video playback. Wireless charging still isn’t part of the package, though, which will matter to those who’ve built it into their daily routine, but fast wired charging and a genuinely large battery soften that trade-off considerably.

Sustainability

vivo commits to four generations of OS updates and 6 years of security patches for the V70, placing it firmly in the category of phones worth keeping rather than replacing every two years. That’s the most meaningful sustainability argument a phone can make, applying regardless of materials or recycling programs. Longer software support means slower obsolescence, and slower obsolescence means less electronic waste accumulating on a shelf somewhere.

IP68 and IP69 ratings, combined with what vivo calls 10-Facet Drop Resistance, lower the anxiety of carrying a polished phone through real conditions. IP69 covers high-pressure water jets, going well beyond typical rain scenarios. That durability confidence changes how casually you handle the phone day to day, and there’s something genuinely reassuring about owning a device you don’t have to constantly worry about.

The material choices also support long-term ownership. Aerospace-grade aluminum and etched AG glass age more gracefully than glossy plastic, which yellows, scratches, and starts looking tired within a year of daily use. The matte texture stays presentable with minimal cleaning, and IP68/IP69 combined with drop resistance gives the V70 a realistic chance of surviving the accidents that typically end mid-range phones early.

Value

The V70 packages premium design, a ZEISS telephoto-first camera system, a strong OLED display, fast charging, and long software support into a price tier that usually demands more compromises. The Golden Hour finish gives it a visual identity that stands above most phones at its price, and the combination of AI Stage Mode with ZEISS Multifocal Portrait focal lengths makes it genuinely specialized rather than just generically capable.

The 8MP ultra-wide is the honest weak spot, and travelers who rely heavily on wide shots will feel that gap. Wireless charging is also absent. But what the V70 does well, it does consistently, and the combination of a premium-feeling design, a capable telephoto system, and 6 years of security updates makes it a phone that’s easy to justify and hard to grow out of quickly.

Verdict

The vivo V70 in Golden Hour is one of the more cohesive mid-range phones available right now. The etched glass with its unexpected bluish shift, the aluminum frame, the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, the bright 1.5K OLED, and the ZEISS telephoto and portrait system all work together in a way that makes the phone feel intentional rather than assembled from a spec sheet and a parts catalog.

The 8MP ultra-wide and the absence of wireless charging are unfortunate blemishes on what is otherwise a remarkably well-rounded package. Both are real trade-offs rather than dealbreakers, though, and the vivo V70 earns its place as a phone that’s genuinely hard to fault for what it costs, especially if portrait photography, concert shooting, and long battery life are what matter most to you.
