It's been a crazy few months, but I'm back on track with a backlog of well-designed objects to photograph and review. Expect some new items in the coming weeks.
In the meantime, here are the latest items I've been playing around with.
Opal Tadpole Camera

Opal made some waves a few years back with their C1 camera (which I reviewed here) and they recently launched a camera designed specifically to replace your laptop camera.
Lumio Teno — A Kintsugi Inspired Lamp

This mysterious package arrived on my doorstep one day, and was immediately blown away with the thoughtful interaction of turning on the light.
Aqara Smart Home Tech

We recently bought a house, and I went deep into the rabbit hole of home automation and security. My set up includes water leak sensors, cameras, and even vibration sensors to detect new mail.
Ekster Grid Backpack

I've got a few backpacks for different use cases, but this has to be my new favorite bag for travel due to its unique front-loaded design.
Have any suggestions?
I'm always looking for new well-designed objects to check out. Has anything popped up recently that you think would be a good fit? Let me know and I'll try to get my hands on one.
