Lakeside Chalet

Nestled in the woods on the shore of Lake Brome, the Lakeside Chalet is a rural escape from the city. The minimalist retreat features a simple rectangular form with a gabled roof. Its charred larch wood facade gives the exterior a dark hue, while cutouts lined with natural timber provide a warm contrast. Internally, polished concrete floors, pale wood, and built-in furniture add to the aesthetic's simplicity. An abundance of glazing not only washes living spaces in natural light but also keeps the interior connected to the natural surroundings.

Solo Stove Mesa

Portable and smokeless, the Solo Stove Mesa brings the cozy atmosphere of a campfire to more intimate outdoor gatherings. The compact fireplace is lightweight and easy to transport to tabletops, allowing you to take the ambiance with you. Ideal for s'mores, it can be fueled with pellets (using the included adapter) or small pieces of wood, while the brand's signature 360º Airflow Technology brings either fuel type to flame in moments. For a larger crowd, the Mesa XL takes the outdoor tabletop versatility of the original Mesa to the next level, offering more heat, a longer burn time, and a built-in pellet adapter.

Biofire Smart Gun

Having a gun for home defense can be a good idea — but they need to be securely stored for safety's sake, making them less effective as a self-defense tool than they should be. Biofire is out to change that with its Smart Gun that's always locked but instantly accessible with the owner's biometrics. This 9mm firearm uses an integrated fingerprint and 3D facial recognition system to only unlock if whoever is holding it is authorized to use it, preventing tragic outcomes from a criminal, or worse yet, a child. The system is powered by a high-endurance internal battery that charges on the included Smart Dock, allowing you to leave the gun connected or keep it unplugged in a drawer, closet, or car with the confidence it will be ready when you need it for months at a time.
