While settle for an ugly extension cord when you can have an artistically designed multi-point electrical “power pod�
WirePod is designed by Dutch designer Joris Laarman for a new series of Artecnica products called Wiremore. Wiremore aims to make you so proud of your electrical cables that you would want them to be visible.
The 3.8 metre long WirePod is made of thermoplastic rubber with four plug outlets.
Implications - Several outlets branch out (literally) from the main stem of the power system , allowing for a variety of devices to run at one time. This flowering outlet would be the perfect addition for contemporary office spaces or homes; add some aesthetic electricity to any room with WirePod cables.
