Aviiq

The body of the AViiQ – Portable Laptop Stand is made from Hylite, a composite material comprised of aluminum sheets bonded to a polypropylene core. By milling off the aluminum and leaving the polypropylene the material becomes flexible. The feet of the stand are injection-molded Dynaflex, a thermoplastic elastomer.

The AViiQ – Portable Laptop Stand adheres to the tenet that form should follow function. It has a minimalist aesthetic; four aluminum plates with white plastic hinges and matte grey feet; a pop of magenta in the lower right hand corner to mimic the AViiQ logo. The light simplicity of the design mirrors the physical weight, size and ease-of-use of the Laptop Stand itself. Even though other laptop stands are designed to support inherently mobile products they are, generally, not designed to travel, and the ones that are don’t support the keyboard at an ergonomically-correct angle. The AViiQ – Portable Laptop Stand folds flat to fit easily into a laptop bag and is less than 1/4″ thick and weighs only 5.25 oz. It unfolds in less than 2 seconds and can support up to 17″ laptops. The aluminum in Hylite, along with the airflow underneath, helps to dissipate heat to improve battery life and overall longevity.

The AViiQ – Portable Laptop Stand is exceptionally light, thin and simple to use. When folded flat it slides into any laptop bag (even a laptop sleeve!) but when it’s folded for use it supports the keyboard at a 12 degree angle and allows air to flow underneath, dissipating heat from the laptop. The simple, geometric form of the AViiQ – Portable Laptop Stand, as well as the brushed aluminum, complements the design of most of today’s laptops. The white, vertical lines, while functional, add visual interest and the hit of magenta in the nameplate catches the eye without overwhelming it.
