As long as it does what it\u2019s supposed to do, which is get you connected to the internet, then we\u2019re almost always fine with it. However, most routers have a lifespan of 2-3 years and so it contributes to the million tons of e-waste that is generated annually by people who constantly change their gadgets and devices. <\/p>\n<p>Designer: Connor Rusnak<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/03\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-479319\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/03\/08\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"WiFi router concept uses cork as material and design aesthetic\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/03\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/2.jpg\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/03\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/2.jpg\" alt width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-479319\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/03\/08\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"WiFi router concept uses cork as material and design aesthetic\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/03\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/2.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-3\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0648786275385337\" data-ad-slot=\"6683677248\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width><\/p>\n<div overflow><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\" type=\"12f41d739fba9210ae88a220-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"12f41d739fba9210ae88a220-text\/javascript\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>A concept for a sustainable wifi router tries to solve that issue and at the same time give us a well-designed one that you will proudly display in your home office. The Pella uses cork in the design so you get an eco-friendly material that can also look good on your device. In theory, using this material should not interfere with the functionality of the device which is of course important since the only reason you\u2019ll get a router is to be able to connect all your devices to the WiFi.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/03\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/5.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1280\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-479320\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/03\/08\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"WiFi router concept uses cork as material and design aesthetic\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/03\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/5.jpeg\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/03\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/5.jpeg\" alt width=\"1280\" height=\"1280\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-479320\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/03\/08\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"WiFi router concept uses cork as material and design aesthetic\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/03\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/5.jpeg\"><\/p>\n<p>The cork is not just a building material but an integral part of the design. The router looks more like a smart speaker with its spherical shape which is also reminds me of a top but with a stable base. The basic controls, which are mainly the on\/off button and what seems to be a reset button, are located on the base. There\u2019s no need for any other controls or buttons so you get a pretty minimalist design, as all routers should probably have. <\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/03\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/3-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-479405\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/03\/08\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"WiFi router concept uses cork as material and design aesthetic\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/03\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/3-1.jpg\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/03\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/3-1.jpg\" alt width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-479405\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2024\/03\/08\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"WiFi router concept uses cork as material and design aesthetic\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2024\/03\/wifi-router-concept-uses-cork-as-material-and-design-aesthetic\/3-1.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-4\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0648786275385337\" data-ad-slot=\"1017606968\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width><\/p>\n<div overflow><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\" type=\"12f41d739fba9210ae88a220-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"12f41d739fba9210ae88a220-text\/javascript\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>More often than not, these routers are hidden away in our home not just because it needs to be near a wall socket but because there isn\u2019t any decorative aspect to it.
