Muji International Design Competition Winner

The Muji Award International Design Competition was recently held and the winner is Yoh Komiyama of Japan. The winner designed a “cast of skin.” It’s an outlet plug designed to do three things; 1. To Save Energy 2. To prevent dust or waste from penetrating an outlet, and 3. To maintain a connection between an outlet plug and an outlet. It was a simple design concept, but it was both innovative and environmentally friendly. Congrats to Yoh Komiyama. Image/Info: Bare Blog
