Carry-On Suitcase

$550.00

Arlo Skye’s Carry-On suitcase is much more than just lightweight. Sophisticated and elegant with no detail ignored, the suitcase comes with a super-useful built-­in 10,050 mAh portable charger, which is hidden away under the handle so it doesn’t disrupt any of the clean lines of the case or get bumped or scratched in transit. The practical pieces are not only user-friendly, but the brand’s direct-to-consumer business model means they are also surprisingly affordable. Available in black, silver or champagne colorways, the Carry-On measures 22 by 14 by 9 inches—meaning all major US airlines will let you bring it aboard.

SBB Giant Watch

$325.00

Their minimalist sensibilities have earned Switzerland’s Mondaine watches many accolades and a place in the MoMA Design Store, but it’s the brand’s ability to make the minimal seem so powerful and engaging that keeps fans on their toes. With the recently released SBB Giant—in an all-black colorway, except for a striking red seconds hand—a clean, classic design feels like something more. At 42mm, it’s also not that giant, but rests well on the wrist, especially considering its lug-less design.

Exploring the strange, confusing and oftentimes distressing modern world, French artist Jean Jullien has created a thoughtful and thought-provoking book.

Eleplanter

$35.00

While the charm of designer Scott Henderson’s self-watering Eleplanter is undeniable, there’s more at play than a cute animal reference. The trunk of the elephant actually functions as a watering reservoir, holding two weeks of liquid. The plant and soil rest in a receptacle with tiny weep holes, situated within the porcelain exterior design. The perforation absorption means there’s no overflow, over-watering or rising soil. Altogether, it’s a clever system for anyone looking for an easy windowsill herb garden.
