X+Y

This cable concept from Japanese design firm Nosigner, called 'XY',  is a design for enhancing connections between people and between objects, drawing inspiration from natural structures of connection such as structure of bones or roots of trees. It enables you to share sound with 3 people for sharing phone calls, music and videos and also helpfully rewinds audio cord tidily, avoiding those usual tangles which (if you're anything like us) can be exasperating to say the least.

We like both the idea, and the looks; M.E. sees the potential of this kind of practical, beautiful design as pretty huge...
