Sharing Plug

These handmade electrical plugs allow you to plug a second appliance into the back.

Dutch designer Dave Hakkens noticed that appliances like fridges and boilers need to stay plugged in all the time so there’s often a shortage of sockets for occasional use.

His Sharing Plug eliminates the need for a tangle of multiple-socket extension leads or unplugging one device to use another.

Hakkens sculpted the plug by hand, scanned it digitally and used the manipulated model to cast the casing in rubber so it’s soft and flexible.
