These gifts for architects range from minimalist streetwear capsules to portable drawing tablets.
Comprised of a classic black t-shirt, a fabric cup sleeve and a pack of palo santo wood that is known for its healing properties when burned, the XLIM 'EP.2 SYNOPSIS' collection marries streetwear and lifestyle products in one architecture-themed capsule. If shopping for a minimalist this holiday, opt for pieces from the range or a pair of Dr. Martens 'City Pack' shoes that pay tribute to iconic cities from around the globe. Each pair is a simplistic homage to architecture and landmarks from London, Tokyo and more.
Other gifts for architects include the Focal Littora 200 OD Stone 8 outdoor speaker which mimics a realistic rock. This fun piece of audio equipment is functional and aesthetically striking doubling as outdoor decor. MKQ multifunctional stylus is another notable example with "advanced features such as palm rejection technology, effectively preventing unnecessary lines from being drawn on your screen when working."
