The Apple pedest' Q' designed and launched by the Oneobject for the Hong Kong OOSH brand was a successful crowdfunding in the Kickstarter in the early years and received many praises. As an iPhone charging base, 'Q' is positioned more like a lifestyle product than an electronic consumer accessory. The whole product is made of metal CNC engraving, small and exquisite. With the existing apple plug-in, it can also be used as interior decoration after charging, and placed on the desktop, bedside, bookshelf and tea table...

Pure, simple and minimal iPhone dock on your desk, shelf, side table, kitchen top…
'Q' is the result of a minimalistic obsession. To take away complexity of our life, form and function become obvious. 'Q' is assembled with original Apple lightning cable, to create the most efficient design possible. Precisely machine crafted stainless steel, brass or copper, it becomes an truly authentic object that fits your domestic environments.

Compatibility: iPhone 5 above
Dimension: approx 1.2" x 1.2" x 1.2" Weight: 0.2kg

Q's size, proportion, material handling and detail handling are all places to test the designer's skill. Returning to the most common square appearance, removing the guide angle modification and curved surface radian, is the designer's consideration of the relationship between the product and the surroundings: a simple and stable form is easy to match with the mobile phone, and it is also easier to integrate into the surrounding environment. You can even forget the appearance of the product and feel the space of the material itself.

Design subtraction, outside Kung Fu poetry

Looking back on the design process, it is a simple and plain way to interpret the experience of daily life.

At the same time, this usual square shape is also due to the consideration of production energy efficiency, which more effectively simplifies the production process from profile to final product and avoids redundant processing losses.

Every detail of'Q' is designed to bring a more concise and convenient charging experience. The bottom nano rubber pad can be firmly adsorbed on the desktop, and the mobile phone can be unplugged freely with one hand without holding down the base with the other hand.

Remove electronic components and complex assembly, fix the original charging cable through the keyhole structure, make the best use of everything, and make the product function more pure.

The extremely small area charging base avoids the inconvenience caused by blocking the horn and earphone holes, and also saves desktop space.
