Orbitkey Studio Session 1 — VOYEJ Hand-crafted Leather

In the studio, if we’re not sitting at our desks, you’ll definitely find us loitering around the overworked espresso machine, waiting for another dose of coffee to infiltrate our already-caffeinated bloodstream. As coffee lovers, we can always appreciate a great cuppa and with the launch of the latest Espresso Orbitkey, we thought this would be the perfect time to share some handy facts about something we are passionate about. [We're also running a fun competition - more info at the bottom of this post] As the topic of coffee is so broad, we’ve been picking our brains over about what...
