The Nomad Tablet Side Table Bridges the Gap Between Work and Relaxation Although there happens to be a ton of accessories designed and manufactured for the Apple iPad and other tablet brands, I don’t think any of them rival the class of the Nomad tablet side table. Chic and stylish, it takes into account more factors than simply function and convenience. Electrolux Rendez-Vous: The kitchen table Electrolux Global Design has come up with a way for everyone to be included in the celebrations with the Rendez-Vous - a concept interactive table with a high-tech kitchen built-in, and it will even charge your mobile phone. Sharing food with family and friends around the dining table is a universal recipe for a good time, unless of course you are stuck in the kitchen cooking. The key to this concept design is its “energy shield” top which would transmit power wirelessly to any electrical appliance, so there’s no need to plug in your blender, toaster, or your mobile phone.

With a slot straight through its center, this table allows the user to slip in his or her tablet into it to use it as a stylish stand. Because of its small size, it can be placed just about anywhere in the home or office. It bridges the gap between work and relaxation. The top also integrates an inductive cooking system across its whole surface that uses sensors to detect where a pan is placed so that any part of the table can become a hot-plate. Below deck there’s modular drawers and provision for kitchen appliances like a stove or refrigerator and a “virtual chef” that provides cooking supervision on the go completes the futuristic design package.
