With an increasing number of mobile electronics available to us. We are now constantly attached to our smart phones, tablets, e-readers and smart watches. Our desk has thus become a clutter of power ports, charging cradles , charging cables, desk lamps and cord managers. Trio was designed to minimize some of this clutter on our desks. It serves the following three functions while presenting a beautiful minimalist design: 1) Serve as a charging hub with its dual USB charging ports, both of which have high enough amperage to charge either smartphones or tablets. 2) The integrated ultra-thin OLED lighting element serves as an elegant desk lamp. 3)There is magnetic inductive charging cradle for the newly unveiled Apple watch.

Flip is a Headphones/Speakers hybrid concept. It is a set of headphones that can also be used as portable speakers. There are two modes of use. In Headphones mode, it acts as a pair of regular headphones. By pressing the switch button, you enter the Speakers mode and activate the surprisingly powerful external speakers located on the outside of the headphones, sharing your music with everyone around you. (Note: This is just a concept rendering, not an actual product)

The iQ Alarm - The iQ Alarm will be available in two colors.
The iQ Alarm - The iQ alarm will give your brain a workout in the morning.It will ask you a set of 1-3 questions (similar to ones found in IQ tests) and will keep going off until you answer all the questions in the set correctly (No snooze). And don't think about pressing the power button or removing battery. The power button needs to be pressed and held for 30 seconds and the battery is designed to be tedious to remove.By that time, you would be awake, albeit angry.This is an alarm you will love to hate.

The cocoon is a versatile pencil holder with a stylus tip at the end. It is long enough to act as a stand alone stylus, but it is also a pencil holder/extender that fits most pencils or even some pens. Being an artist, I find myself sketching ideas down on paper one minute using my pencil then going right to my iPad the next. Sometimes I wish I had a stylus right next to me to sketch on the iPad as well. The cocoon will solve this problem by giving the user a pencil or pen on one end and a stylus on the other, all you have to do is flip. The stylus nip is replaceable in case it wears out or gets damaged. There can be a replaceable eraser tip as well, so that it will act exactly like a traditional pencil holder if you need it to be. Through my research, I haven't seen a detachable stylus that also acts as a pencil holder/ extender. I think it will be a useful product for many of us.

Dual - The wristband-styled watch - One thing I noticed about our generation is the common dislike for wearing watches (especially for men), even those in the professional fields. Indeed, why wear watches when our cellphones keep time perfectly accurate ? Watches have stopped functioning as time keepers and have become jewelries, and I personally do not like jewelries. So, I decided to draw up a concept of a watch that I wouldn't mind wearing. The concept is a self-winding wristband-styled watch with dual enclosures.

Cafe Cubes - They have sugar cubes, so why not make coffee cubes and milk cubes? The cup itself is designed to be a square on the bottom so 2 coffee cubes + 1 milk cube + 1 sugar cube will fit on the bottom, and round on the top so it is ergonomic for drinking. Work in progress, to be updated.
The product concept provides an all in one solution from raw unpeeled to minced garlic (No knife needed). It peels garlic through shaking, the body is clear so you can see when all the garlic is peeled. The cap is a cup with a stainless steel mincer portion in the middle, it is shaped so it can rock and mince the garlic. The materials (Stainless and BPA -free food safe plastic) will be easy to clean and aid in getting rid of the odor. The cupped shape of the cap will make it easy to spoon off the minced garlic, we never even have to touch the peeled garlic. Inspired by the "How To Peel a Head of Garlic in Less Than 10 Seconds" video, Joseph and Joseph Garlic Rocker and Quirky's Shuck.
