'FurniQi' allows you to get rid of pesky cords and chargers through [wireless charging tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zagg-desk-mat). By looking at these bamboo tables, it is difficult to predict that they have the capability to charge a device.

With FurniQi, charging has never been easier and it allows users to simply place their phone on the table, enabling it to start charging. Fonesalesman is the company behind this ingenious furniture piece and the first one in the works will be a side table. Ideal for right beside your bed or couch, these [minimalist and stylish tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arc-sleep-nightstand) look great on their own, even without the charging function.

FurniQi's goal is to make [charging furniture seamless](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wireless-powers), essentially making the two functions fuse into one. In the future, if similar charging tables are available, the way we shop for furniture will also be altered.
