Triangle Draws The Power

Try fitting your MacBook Pro’s charger head with an adaptor’s plug on the same multi plug and you’ll realize how inefficient the current design system is. The Multi Plug seen here is a clever redesign in the shape of a triangle. Each plug gets its own space and allows you to hook up multiple devices easily.

• Multi Plug’s triangular block shape allows it to perform as an additive component.
• Three sides can be used.
• Pins protrude from one side, and two other sides’ function as sockets.

The Multi Plug is a 2013 red dot award: design concept winner.
