Drakkar S Smartyacht Concept

Aspiring sailors will be able to leave the dock soon than expected with the Drakkar S Smartyacht. The 85-foot concept is equipped with an autopilot system that is controlled by artificial intelligence technology, eliminating the need for an experienced captain. It's all operated by an app on your smartphone where owners can pick a location, and the vessel will set the course. While sailing, the boat will approach a berth at the right distance for mooring and identify surfaces or underwater obstacles by itself. Although the technology is futuristic, the design is inspired by ancient Viking ships, even using the Norwegian word for "dragon ships" as its name. An electric motor powered by solar panels will propel the yacht while the interior provides two master cabins, two guest cabins, and a spacious salon.

Ooni Koda 2 Max Pizza Oven

Sometimes bigger really is better. With a 24"-wide cooking area, the Ooni Koda 2 Max can easily cook massive 20" New York-style pies, or handle up to three 10" pizzas simultaneously. That size also makes room for two independently controlled gas burners and two 3/4′′ cordierite pizza stones, creating dual cooking zones. A front-mounted digital temperature display and app connectivity make monitoring the oven simple, G2 Gas Technology with tapered flames delivers more consistent heat, and the glass visor is removable to allow for cooking larger dishes. Available in propane and natural gas versions.

Contieri Dinner Mirth Perfume

Sight is widely recognized as our strongest sense, but the sense of smell might be the most impactful. What is pleasing to the eye can easily be let down by scent — which Contieri wants to prevent with its Dinner Mirth perfume. An initial hit of incense and grapefruit grabs attention, warmed by bergamot and amber. Earthy notes of patchouli and rugged birch are finished with a base of musk, ambergris, ambroxan, and oud — all for an evening not soon to be forgotten.

Ministry of Supply Kinetic Pant

Ever run a half-marathon in work pants? Someone did in the Ministry of Supply's Kinetic Pant, and they set a Guinness World Record. We don't necessarily recommend doing that daily — unless you're late for a meeting — but that's certainly more than enough proof that they're comfortable, stretchy, sweat- and water-resistant, wrinkle-free, and breathable. Plus, they're machine washable and easy to dress up or down depending on the day, thanks to the wide array of colors they offer, comfortable drawstring band, and zippered pockets. Adding to their versatility, they're specifically cut to work well with sneakers, which most of us are rocking to the office and on the weekends, too. And the waist measurements aren't broad-stroke alpha sizing: these are available in 28 through 40-inch waist sizes.
