nvm ONE - Headphones

The nwm ONE headphones embody the “less, but better” design principle by reducing components to what is truly essential. Forgoing conventional ear cushions, they use a lightweight headband and ring-shaped elements for a comfortable, open-ear fit. Proprietary PSZ technology minimises sound leakage, while a two-way driver structure optimises bass and clarity. This minimal configuration allows users to enjoy audio privately without isolating them from their surroundings.

iA Notebook - Notebooks

The iA Notebook was designed with one clear goal: to celebrate the beauty of the written word. Its creators at Information Architects Inc. spent months testing countless paper samples to find the perfect balance of texture, weight, and ink compatibility. The final choice, a high-quality Japanese paper with subtle watermarks, gently guides handwriting but fades from view as pages are filled. A lay-flat binding allows the entire spread to be used without interruption, while the minimalist embossed sleeve and wooden box underline the notebook’s gift-like character. Every detail reflects an appreciation for writing as a craft.

Can-Am Pulse - Electric Motorbike

The Can-Am Pulse ’73 marks both a return to BRP’s heritage and a move into the future of electric urban mobility. Its design nods subtly to the first Can-Am motorcycle from 1973, with elements like the pentagonal logo shape, while drawing inspiration from the snowy owl – a symbol of quiet power and elegance. The compact naked bike retains the familiar silhouette of a motorcycle with a fuel tank, offering an ergonomic and emotional link for riders moving to electric power. Powered by a 35 kW Rotax electric motor, it features a single-sided swing arm with an enclosed chain-case to reduce maintenance. Modular construction and recyclability underline the sustainable design approach.
In form and function, the Cam-Am Pulse blends grace, precision and ease of use for a new generation of urban riders.
