iPhone and Qi compatible smartphone owners searching
for an aluminium wireless charger might be interested in a new design unveiled
by the team over at Bourge Design. Who have created the Venus, a wireless
charger inspired by the “illustrious lines of world-class nautical vessels”.
Venus is now available to preorder priced at US$ 90 offering a US$ 10 saving off, the
after launch price of US$ 100.
The design of Venus includes seamless curved
aluminium edges that sweep to a point, representing the shape of a ship’s hull.
Finished with a precision cut glass pad that is elevated and angled to provide
what Bourge Design call the “optimal view” allowing you to see your smartphone
screen as charging commences. The wireless charger also includes a handy USB
3.0 and a USB-C connections on the front.
Bourge Design have also carefully considered having
more than one wireless charger in close proximity and as you can see in the
image below have designed the wireless chargers to perfectly fit together,
thanks to a hidden magnetic connection. To create another sculpted shape
allowing two devices to be charged next to each other simultaneously.
