Editor's 2020 Gift Guide

It's that time of the year again, we have been pretty busy with the end of the year coming soon, how are your preparations coming? Are you traveling or simply staying home for the holidays. I can't help to ignore these past few months, with this global pandemic that never ceases to end; has been giving us hardships that we are trying to shift around. Let's stay hopeful and stay safe. That being said, how about a featured article titled: 'Editor's 2020 Gift Guide' where I would highlight some of the coolest techs we have seen for the past year.

Black Friday Action for Designers and Makers

Time for action! I have been living in Europe for over a year now, I just can't help myself thinking about 80s annotation whenever I am seeing 'action' in the sale section. What a year this has been with this global pandemic (and we are not done yet), I truly appreciate seeing all the independent businesses stepping into the game by innovating solutions to support the new normal and constant change of situation. Even with this hardship, we are seeing many of them bringing the challenge.

Editor's 2019 Gift Guide

I am pretty a late-boomer on this holiday gift thingy but still worth a piece on ABDZ. Here we are! A couple more days of work, I am sure some of you are already on 'vacation mode' (👋). As you may have been aware, it's a yearly tradition for us to share a 'gift guide', I think this is one of the coolest things you can make especially when you have a blog. It's an impromptus excuse to share about the brands we love, independent ventures that we support and including our side-projects.

Black Friday Madness for Designers & Makers

It's that time of the year again. It's that much needed time off with your family and friends. Coming with that free time well come also the deals from Black Friday. I guess we all know the concept of what Black Friday is. My email has been hammered and social feeds with outstanding deals that just can't go overlooked. By the meantime, I also took the liberty to add friends who are doing amazing work that needs attention in this roundup, independent artists who are making products to enhance our workflow, inspire us and have all the right reasons to be autonomous.

Editor's 2018 Gift Guide

Less than two weeks before Xmas, I mean we are totally in the spirit as we speak. The tree is up and you can hear nothing but Xmas songs all over the radio. For ABDZ, it's our time of the year where we would share our gift guide, this will be the Editor's edition. Hello, it's me! François from ABDZ, I decided to take a different direction this year and I divided my hand-picked selections into imaginative type of characters of what (in my opinion) would describe our most popular categories this year on ABDZ.

Book Recommendations: Gift Guide (2017)

We hoped that you have been enjoying our gift guides from the past week, let's keep the holiday spirit alive with another guide. But this time, we will stay away from the tech stuff and focus on books! With the holidays knocking at the door, it will be a great moment to enjoy a nice book next to a fireplace? In all seriousness, it's always good to go back to the basics for a change, we spend a crazy amount of time on our smartphones. Let's leave it on the coffee table for a change. I have to admit that I wish I was reading more books this year, it's on my things to do more for 2018.

Ibby's 2017 Gift Guide

I'm so delighted to share my picks for this holiday gifting season. While we can all be consumed with consumerism at this specific time of year it's important to reflect on what matters most in our lives and let's be honest, none of it is material. BUT, we do deserve a little sparkle here and there so I hope my curation of minimally-minded items helps take out some of the fuss in your hunt for the perfect gift for that special someone.

Last Minute Father's Day Gift Guide

Father's day is this weekend and if you are like me and always forget about these dates we selected some really nice gift suggestions that can be delivered to you before Sunday. It ranges from drones, laptops and other electronics to boots and wallets. These are some simple suggestions but the most important thing is to not forget to call your old man and say how much you love him and appreciate everything he's done for you. As a new father now I have a completely new perspective on how difficult it is to raise a child and our parents, or whoever raised us, really need a big thank you.

Minimal Mother's Day Gift Guide

With Mother's Day right around the corner it's not too late to surprise the mom out there with a keen eye for the simple yet stunning, multi-tasking products to make her crazy day just a bit easier. We had some real fun curating this standout selection of goods that will cater to the busy mom with no time to deal with anything in the least bit fussy. We've done our best to gather our favorite minimalistic items that compliment all facets of her life from beauty and fashion to photography and design.

2016 Holiday Gift Guide

It's the most wonderful time of the year. Yeah, it is time for Abduzeedo's Holiday Gift Guide. I know you might say we might be a bit too late, but I believe a lot of people out there, including myself, haven't gotten anything yet. With that in mind check out our selection. It goes from laptops, monitors to toys and furniture. Some I have myself including the first suggestion, the Dell 24 4K monitor. It's the best 4k monitor you can find out there.

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose, you know the rest. It's that time, the most wonderful time of the year, at least for a good deal of the population around the globe. I have always had somewhat mixed feelings about Christmas, but it's growing on me since I move to the northern hemisphere where I can experience Christmas during the winter. In Brazil it was just the beginning of an awesome summer, less about the cozy fireplace and more about the beach and soaking up the sun.
