Most GaN chargers on the market right now treat 140W like a finish line. Satechi hit it with their ChargeView hub and added a wattage display, which was genuinely useful. Voltix pushed to 180W with 7 ports and called it a day. Belkin went sideways into docking territory with their 146W 11-in-1 hub, bundling in...

The Met Gala is probably the most popular and glamorous fashion event in the Western world. Whichever way you feel about the organizers and having such a lavish event in these times, you can’t deny that it is very much talked about, especially on social media, due to the personalities who attend and, of course, what...

Deep in the Serra da Mantiqueira, where the air is thin and the forest floor barely registers sunlight, Cornetta Arquitetura has completed Casa Pinhal — a 690-square-metre residence in Santo Antônio do Pinhal, São Paulo, that reads less like a building dropped into nature and more like one that grew out of it.

Somewhere between your gooseneck kettle and your burr grinder sits a problem nobody in the coffee gear industry bothered to productize until now.
