As smart technology continues to be integrated into homes, designers and interior decorators are tasked with ensuring that a home doesn't appear too cold or robotic, which is why Mobile Island is designing tech-infused furniture, that features a more warming and calm facade.
Made primarily from wooden materials, this collection features a modular design that enables home owners to piece together their own creation. The set is comprised of a 15-watt charger, a small five-watt charger, a portable charger and two wooden trays. Each of the pieces feature a sleek and minimal design that hides the plugs and outlets, making for a friendlier addition to one's home. Both compact and practical, these designs offer the home owner the convenience of modern technology, with the aesthetically pleasing nature of design.
