Electronics Engineer

Hi! We're Charcoal.

The world is filled with primitive, dull products that don’t add much value to our lives. A desk is just a surface to hold things up, or an article of clothing is just a surface on our skin. We're changing that by leveraging great design and engineering to unlock the potential of these everyday products that have remained stagnant for centuries.
