# Wrist-Supportive Mouse Pads Wonjun Jo Designs the New Curble Mouse Pad with Ergonomic Support By Amy Duong | Published 2023-05-16 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/curble References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2023/05/16/this-mouse-pad-with-wrist-support-adds-durability-and-hygiene-by-removing-parts/) & [bit.ly](https://bit.ly/3UPQoc2)  [Wonjun Jo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wonjun-jo) designs the new Curble Mouse Pad which is defined by its wrist support, which is not an uncommon feature. The differentiating factor is that the support has more longevity -- traditional support is usually made from foam or gel, which can burst or deform over time. The Curble is made with a foam-like material that has a hollow interior. It is also divided into stripes which are more durable and retain its structure regardless of the pressure that is exerted onto it. The result is a distinct design that is hygienic and durable -- it is also detachable for easy washing and allows the mouse pad to be used with or without the support.
