Currently Crowdfunding: Notable Campaigns of the Week

A roundup of projects currently seeking funding on various crowdfunding platforms for your viewing (and spending!) pleasure. Go ahead, free your disposable income:

Closca Bottle

Remember this bike helmet? Well, Closca is back—this time with a water bottle that compliments the design of their nesting helmet. There’s only a couple days left to pledge, so get on it if you want one of your own. 

Orbitkey Accessories

Our friends at Orbitkey are back with accessories to compliment their original Orbitkey key organizer. We especially dig the simplicity of the Orbitkey Ring (pictured above), and apparently so do a lot of other people—with 45 days left in their campaign, Orbitkey is already around $130,000 above their original goal.  

Looma Hoverbox

Levitate pretty much anything with this small platform. At first we thought this could be gimmick-y, but the campaign photos are so subtle and beautiful we changed our minds.  

Eau Good Duo 

Here’s another water bottle design doing big things on Kickstarter right now. The simple strap around the bottle serves as an easy way to hold it during runs, and the bulge towards the bottom of the bottle keeps charcoal filters in place.

SailTimer Audio Tracking

This one’s a little niche but worth sharing for those who may need it—Audio Tacking for SailTimer charting apps goes to show changing the primary sense activated by a design (in this case hearing instead of sight) can make the experience that much easier.
