Smart devices have become deeply integrated into our everyday lives, so PESI is creating a new line of furniture called 'On the Surface' that was designed with integrated wireless chargers, for those looking to conveniently give their phone a quick boost, while keeping it close. The furniture line is comprised of a clock stand, a mirror, a speaker, a tray and a container, enabling one to charge their phone without connecting it to an electrical outlet.
All of these designs reflect the importance of smart technology while addressing how mobile phones are altering design. 'On the Surface' naturally integrates charging ports into one's home while enabling a homeowner to maintain a sleek and minimalist look.
