Laptop at Home 

Soft laptop accessories for the home designed by Mike and Maaike with Belkin.     Available from Belkin. www.belkin.com

Most laptop cases and accessories are designed for the business traveler.  We focused instead on the challenges of using a laptop in the home, including use in a variety of locations and postures, protection, transport, comfort and color.

The product line includes the following:

The PocketTop- a home base for your laptop, both a protective case and a workstation. Its soft form includes a generous storage space for mouse, power supply, pens, notes, etc. The open hatch provides easy access to the storage space and doubles as a handle.  Lift pads raise laptop for increased airflow.

The CushTop- a wedge-shaped cushion that provides increased padded comfort, protecting the user from heat and improving the typing and viewing angle. the hollow side pockets keep your power adapter and mouse tucked away and act as handles for carrying the cushtop with your laptop.

The SleeveTop- a “second skin” for laptops that allows for comfortable use on the couch, bed, table, etc. Simple handles allow for easy transportation from room to room and the laptop can be used without removing it from the case. Lift pads raise laptop for increased airflow.

About MIKE AND MAAIKE
Our collaborations together have always had conceptual foundations.  Sometimes the result is more practical and other times more theoretical.  We like to explore the full spectrum of design.  We joined to form a collaborative that experiments on subjects that we find challenging, surprising and useful. By using experimentation as a collaborative work process we strive to develop strong conceptual foundations and therefore do not attempt to arrive at preconceived and static goals.  We mix our diverse high-tech and low-tech design background with our collage of interests to create products, wearables and art pieces, most of which are in search of perpetual motion and human interaction.
