Smart and stylish: our gift ideas for Christmas

If you're searching for a smart gift idea for art lovers, the digital art frame by Ionnyk might be the perfect solution. This Belgian company has developed a frame that uses electronic paper technology to display high-quality artwork – without backlighting and with a look reminiscent of real paper.

The frame is wireless and energy-efficient, with a battery life of up to a year. Using the Apple or Android app, you can easily switch between displayed artworks and curate your own personalised gallery. Ionnyk also offers a service to transform personal photos into artistic representations.

By combining modern technology with traditional art presentation, the digital frame appeals to both tech enthusiasts and art aficionados – making it a smart and stylish addition to your home or a truly unique gift.

This gift idea will certainly delight the whole family: with Mi Smart Kettle Pro, you’ll never have to worry if your tea, coffee, or cocoa is served either too hot or too cold. Five adjustable modes ensure perfectly tempered drinks for any taste. A high-resolution display lets you know when the right temperature is reached. At the push of a button, you can switch between the following modes:  

• 40 °C for probiotics

• 50 °C for milk powder

• 70 °C for baby formula

• 80 °C for tea

• 90 °C for coffee

Another tip: the Mi Home / Xiaomi Home app for Android and iOS enables you to configure even more precise settings.  

You (or your loved ones) already have the Gira System 3000 installed and would like to explore all of its possibilities? With a special touch top unit, switching on lights or adjusting the blinds becomes even more intuitive. Similar to a smartphone display, a simple tap is enough to tell your home what to do. With one swipe, you can dim the lights to your preferred level of brightness. Once you’ve set the mood, a memory function enables you to store those exact settings and reactivate them anytime. The Gira System 3000 touch top unit’s minimalist design is available in many different colour variants, ranging from creamy white to lack matt. An illuminated surface makes it easy to find the right spot on the wall at night.

Imagine you could harvest fresh herbs and veggies all year round – without even stepping outside. What sounds like an oxymoron is much more feasible than you might think: thanks to the Smart Garden from Click & Grow, you can grow your own crop even in a tiny flat in the city. An automated system ensures that the plants have just the right amount of water, oxygen, and nutrients to flourish. The lighting is controlled either manually or based on individual schedules that you configure via the Click & Grow app for Android und iOS. The app also offers detailed instructions and practical tips to guide you along. A starter pack includes seeds for three batches of tomato, basil, and lettuce, respectively.

The Gira IP flush-mounted radio is an internet radio seamlessly integrated into your wall, offering music enjoyment without the need for additional surface space or visible cables. It streams radio stations from around the world via Wi-Fi and can play music from your smartphone via Bluetooth.

Conveniently controlled with preset buttons, the radio comes in various design options that blend effortlessly with your interior style. Combining practical convenience with understated design, the Gira IP flush-mounted radio provides a smart solution for enjoying music at home.

You can include the Gira IP flush-mounted radio when planning your electrical installation or retrofit it later.
