The best desk toys
Mental wellbeing is key in any office, but not everyone gets a window. Thanks to the super short-throw crisp projection, you can use the JMGO O1 Pro to recreate a 70” to 110” window to gaze out of and watch the latest movies crystal clear thanks to the Leica partnership. Perfect as another screen for work too, or pair it with something like digital art supplier Sedition, and you have your own Tate Modern in your office. Alexa is built-in, and it’s self-setting up. The world is your oyster.
This one is a lot of fun. It's a ball, the size of a cricket ball, which you can make music with. Simply pair ODD Ball up to your phone, choose the sounds you want it to play and start bouncing the thing around. The harder you bounce, the bigger the sound and there are myriad beats you can choose - you can also record your own, too, which is a lot of fun. To make sure your sonic creations aren't lost when the ball stops bouncing, you can create your own multi layer tracks, record sounds and then share them with your mates.
Made from Black Vulcan and a grogged terracotta blend of clay, Joseph creates each piece by hand using the Kurinuki hand cutting technique. The result is a cup that not only looks stunning but also inspires you to create rituals around your breaks. Each Yunomi comes nestled in a Tomobako wooden presentation box and is available in multiple sizes and limited editions.
