Outcome

A portable lighting companion that holds Work, Breathe, and Task as three modes of the same day — not three apps.

Three intelligent modes

Work Mode tracks sessions with the Flowtime Technique. Breathe is a short stress-relief loop when the day spikes. Task Mode is diffused light for hands-on work. Because it is portable it also behaves as a speaker or a timer — the same object, different jobs.

Inspired design

The torus comes from a round clock. It changes with the selected mode, keeps the display in the centre, and switches from Work to Task when you angle and lift it from the base. The light is designed to cut eye strain rather than decorate a desk.

Flexible solutions

Orbit sits in the Flexible Solutions trend: make working from home smarter without adding another dashboard. Time, wellness, and task lighting share one companion that follows the day instead of asking you to manage it.
