The project

Project description.

Share this projectFacebookXLinkedIn
UVEA is the new compact, portable and washable umbrella for daily travel needs.

Rotate the top aperture-like cap to draw the umbrella out for usage. Once used, fold and retract the umbrella back into the case. Turn and close the top cap again to prevent water from seeping out. Additionally, the cover-cum-handle case has grooves to allow better grip in wet conditions.

To clean the umbrella, unwind the bottom cap to detach it from the case. Pour away any stagnant water and wash off the dirt or smells; the case can be laundered too. Before the next usage, just assemble the components back together. With the handle also serving as a cover, there is no need to worry about misplacement.

UVEA comes in three elements – the main umbrella, groove case and bottom cap. With different and separatable components, UVEA can be marketed as spare parts and allow users the freedom to mix and match the color they desire.
