momenzzGLOBE: the world’s first connected crystal
because there’s a better way to stay in touch
In an age when communication has been reduced to short texts and likes and emojis are overused, momenzzGLOBE enables you to create tangible, heartfelt moments of connection with the ones you love.
“Our main motivation has been to question existing methods of communication. We were looking for something more meaningful, more relevant, more personal – not packed into an everyday device like a smartphone, but into a beautifully crafted design object.”
Daniel Bösch, momenzz co-founder
momenzzGLOBE uses cutting-edge technology to enable people to stay connected using only the power of touch. With the customisable momenzz app, you can trigger a display of lights or your personal heartbeat that will visibly show in the crystal. Once the object is touched, an “I’m thinking of you” message is sent back to you.
momenzzGLOBE is created from an exciting combination of materials and cutting edge technology. A smoked glass shell clasps a handcrafted concrete base, enclosing the crystal from Swarovski. Contoured by a rosé gold plated metal inlay, circling the sphere like a ring.
The straightforward and easy-to-use momenzz app for smartphone (iOS/Android) or Apple Watch allows you to stay in touch at any time. Add a photograph that represents your relationship, then let the GLOBE speak for itself.
If you feel that not only your partner, but also your kids, (grand)parents or besties would love the momenzz experience – no worries, the app can handle more than one connection – as long as all of them have a momenzzGLOBE.
momenzzGLOBE arrives like any high-end gift: in bespoke, quality packaging. But unlike any other gift ornament we know, it starts to glow as it is removed from the box – sparkling eyes guaranteed.
“This is much more than another accessory sitting on my wife’s desk. One simple touch makes the gift anew. Unlike a bouquet of flowers or a box of chocolates, the momenzzGLOBE continues to create real-time connections, again and again.”
Patrick Sutterlüty, momenzz co-founder
It takes 122 years of heritage, craftsmanship and expertise to produce a crystal as perfect as the one we use in momenzzGLOBE. Located in a village deep in the Austrian Alps, Swarovski produces naturally brilliant crystals. Our hearts are composed of 30 precise facets and derive from the purest crystal composite. This is a gem that exists to catch the eye.
The momenzzGLOBE is designed as a home accessory that makes a subtle and discreet protagonist for different interior styles and places. It is an object your loved one is unable to look at without thinking of you. There is sure to be a special place back home or in the office.
Our aim was to create an unprecedented product that would surprise and delight those who received it – a design object capable of symbolising the unseen bond that exists between two people. We want to take communication beyond the everyday, beyond emails, texts and phone calls – even beyond words.
We hope you’ll join us on our journey.
With fondest wishes,
Daniel and Patrick
