Cords Launches Cylindric UX1 Charging Unit Designed by Viktor Lundberg

Cords has introduced the Cylindric UX1, a charging unit that reimagines a common workspace object. Designed and engineered in Stockholm by Viktor Lundberg, the device features a cylindrical body, a braided cable, and a restrained colour palette. It integrates four USB-C ports and delivers 165W of power in a single compact form. The design aims to make the charger visually compatible with objects typically kept on display, rather than hidden. According to Cords, the UX1 represents a shift in perspective: treating power as part of the environment. The unit is positioned as giving a more considered role to an often overlooked item. The product is highlighted alongside other technology items such as the UNIT-4 Wireless+, ST-01 Spinner by Amsterdam Dynamics, Ristretto 512 A24, Type 0 Aluminum Mouse, and Herman Miller Powerbox.
