'uffo' by italian studio en&is was presented at salone satellite during milan design week 2011.
containing a core technology, the recharge station connects via USB, allowing users to both charge
and update the content of their mobile devices at the same time. the new functional ornament,
made of wood and ceramic, cradles the objects while hiding and organizing the cables.
