It's one of those tiny frustrations that can derail your entire momentum. But it's also part of the workflow that you forget you have a warm cup waiting for you to wake you up since you're engrossed with whatever it is you're doing."
"Designer Germain Verbrackel clearly understands this universal struggle, because his new concept called Warmer tackles it with the kind of elegant simplicity that makes you wonder why it hasn't been done before.

At first glance, Warmer looks like something that could sit comfortably on the desk of a minimalist tech enthusiast or grace the pages of a Scandinavian design magazine."

Warmer is a minimalist tabletop device that maintains drink temperature using a single tea light. The unit combines aluminum and brushed steel for an industrial-yet-refined aesthetic suited to minimalist or Scandinavian interiors. No electronics, cables, or connectivity are involved; a circular base houses the candle while a vertical support positions a cup, bowl, or small pan at the optimal distance for gentle, sustained heat. A black geometric handle provides visual contrast and contemporary flair. The design emphasizes analog simplicity and functional sculpture, offering a low-tech alternative to electric mug warmers for keeping beverages warm during work sessions.
