Uplifting Parasols

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Wheel and Seal Umbrella is for Fun-Loving Children

— July 21, 2010 — Life-Stages
Rain puts most people in a miserable mood, but there’s something about kids and their love for running in the rain and jumping in puddles that we could all learn a few things from.

Yu-Ting Cheng, Yu-Hsun Chung and Shaw-Chen Chen, a group of Taiwanese designers, have captured that carefree mentality and created the Wheel and Seal umbrella. These parasols feature spongy wheels that will leave a trace of smiley faces for passersby to enjoy. That’s enough to make you love the rain!
