On cloud nine

On cloud nine

Via Bright:

The Cloud Umbrella is a concept design straight from a sci-fi megalopolis. Created by designer Joonsoo Kim, originally from South-Korea but living in The Netherlands, the umbrella is carried around in stick form and inflated into mini-cumulus clouds of protection when the rain starts to pour. The stick is similar to a carry-on bicycle pump.



A poetic note: while dark clouds gather above, you'll have a dry crossing under your own white cloud.

No word on price, or if this will ever see the light of day, but one can only hope.
