10 Coolest Umbrella Designs


Samurai Sword Umbrella


The Samurai Umbrella replaces your boring umbrella grip with aJapanese sword handle, into a dashing, rainproof road warrior. They’ve even included a shoulder case for the umbrella, so you can carry it bandolier-style and free up your hands.


Star Wars Lightsaber Umbrella


At first glance it looks just like any other ordinary umbrella, but one click of the button on the handle will illuminate the shaft in a bright flash of light that’s sure to scare off those evil pith helmet wearing bad guys, just waiting to pounce in the rain. Or it might just make you look super cool on your commute to work. Stand out and be noticed the next time it rains and make your way to the office Sci-Fi style. Source


Water Gun Umbrella


This unique, funnel shaped umbrella harnesses the flow of rainwater down into its handle, a water pistol. The user can fire at will, maintaining a constant flow of water as long as rain continues to fall.


Glowing Umbrella for dark rainy days


This one’s pretty self-explanatory. The umbrella glows! It provides a nice light source for rainy nights and looks pretty awesome and distinctive as well. Since it’s, again, just a concept, you can’t buy it yet, but who knows what the future will bring.Source


Umbrella Stool


Cool umbrella designed to be used as a stool when there is no rain.Source


Electric Umbrella


Check out this Electric Umbrella idea that allows you to walk through the stormy night without worrying about stumbling over any deadwood or roots which cannot be seen in the dark. This is not a concept , so you’ve got to make sure you’re pretty deft with some hardware tools and have a working knowledge of electronics before you begin.


Handbag Umbrella



The umbrella is an incredible invention but nobody has a way to prevent a wet dripping umbrella from creating a mess in your house.
The Inside Out Umbrella solves this problem by fully inverting into a small bag. All the wet drippy stuff stays inside.


The Internet Umbrella


Pileus is an interactive medium of an umbrella to make rainy days fun! Pileus has a big screen on its inside surface, and a camera and embedded sensors on its grip. Then it provides natural embodied interaction with web services to make city walking more interactive.
The current prototype has two main functions: photo-sharing and 3D map navigation. The photo-sharing function is connected to Flickr, then a user can share their finding (e.g. new shops, beautiful scenes) in a city with his/her friends taking a picture by the camera. The screen also shows beautiful photo-streams retrieved from shared-pictures in a Flickr community. The photo-function is operated by a simple action onthe umbrella with a motion sensor without any complicated operations.Source

Golf Club Umbrella


This quirky umbrella was inspired by designer Sebastian Errazuriz’s rainy day golf outings. While living in Scotland, he and his friends often found themselves carrying golf clubs and umbrellas simultaneously, which struck inspiration in the young designer. Made of steel, fiberglass, polyester, and rubber. This product is an umbrella and should not be used as a golf club.Source


Smokers Umbrella


This umbrella is part of an essential kit for every individual who enjoys their cigarette. The kit contains a high quality automatic opening umbrella made of strong (pongee) fabric, and aluminium ribs with fibreglass tips. The fabric has special ’smoking songs’ written on the outside.Source

Hidden Skoda Fabia Optical Illusion

Be sure you update your Vista gadget, I just made the featured post about it – above. Chris O’Bray found these incredible photos, and decided to share them with our community. This is what Chris said: “You’ve probably got dozens of people sending you this, but just in case it’s passed you by. Check this story and pictures out! Love the site by the way. I use the Google gadget – by far its the most interesting thing on my home page!”
It took Sara Watson three weeks to transform the car seen below, and make it invisible. She made a battered old Skoda “disappear” by painting it to merge with the surrounding car park. This invisible Skoda is now being used for advertising by the local recycling firm that donated the vehicle. Sara was given the Skoda Fabia from the breaker’s yard at local firm, whose owner Steve Jackson described her work as “simply amazing”. Are you able to see the car without any problem? Perhaps our color-blind readers will see it more quickly, as they are better at penetrating certain camouflages (supposedly). Oh, I almost forgot to share that I managed to pass my exam – just 8 more before getting a diploma!
