Faraday off

The Faraday Off project, created in collaboration with Aurélien Uhlerich, is an elegant response to the growing need to disconnect in our technology-saturated daily lives. More than just a storage object, it is a domestic Faraday cage designed to physically and technologically isolate our smartphones.

With its sleek geometric shape, Faraday Off was designed as a statement piece that fits naturally into living spaces, whether on a bedside table or in a bookcase. The design is based on the insulating properties of aluminium: once placed inside the airtight case, the phone is cut off from all communications (mobile signals, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth) .

This industrial design project explores the boundary between functional object and decorative furniture, offering a sanctuary of tranquillity in the home. The use of raw, sustainable materials underlines the minimalist approach of the alix videlier design studio, transforming a technical necessity into a soothing sensory and visual experience.
