The Sa Origami-Like Umbrella + Weekend Links


Combining the traditional folding techniques of origami with durable fabric, The Sa looks at reinventing the humble umbrellas as we know it. The construction of The Sa utilises a minimal approach to the common umbrella, striping it back to much more efficient and environmentally conscious design. Most people reading this are probably wondering if it really works - as am I too - but you can watch the Sa in action here.

Bit late on the old Weekend post this time around, but that's cool, we still have a day left! Hope you enjoy some down time whatever is it you get up to.

  1. Love the design behind that umbrella. I wonder if it'll flip inside out as often as others?

  10. These links are pretty awesome! I loved the Chanel lipstick carrot from the fruit links! And the umbrella really gets you thinking whether people will potentially reinvent all everyday objects in a completely different way. When will this stop being an innovative umbrella and become the commonly used umbrella? :)
