Hear Ye’ Hear Ye’! A condom applicator designed to help prevent AIDS has been named the Most Beautiful Object in South Africa.  The Applicator, invented by Willem van Rensburg and designed by industrial designer Roelf Mulder of South Africa’s XYZ Design, allows a condom to be put on easily and rapidly.  The product is used by holding the device using the thumb and forefinger of both hands, pulling the condom down over the male genital in a single rapid movement.

"The applicator, which was selected for the SAFE exhibition at MoMA in New York two years ago and is in the museum’s permanent collection is now being marketed and sold under the Pronto brand." (boingboing.net)
