We all know how rain can be boring and make us sad. For me personally, walking outside while it is raining is pretty hard experience. If you are one of such kind of people, maybe you should try the Rain Drum umbrella.

It is designed to bring in some colors and some funny sounds in your rainy day. This umbrella is designed by South Korean designer Dong Min Park.

It is made to produce different drum-like sounds when rain drops fall on its surface. The only problem with this umbrella is that you can’t fold it so it is not so easy to travel with it via public transportation.

That is awesome, it would definitely make walking in the rain interesting and unique at the same time.

Is no one else concerned that the lady in the pic is being surrounded by DOOM?!

Disappointed with lack of “Drumbrella” usage in title, description and comments.

This looks like a great idea, and the sketches and 3d render are cool, but something tells me that rain doesn’t fall in a way that would makes this function, which is why we don’t see a video of a working prototype. Cool concept, but i don’t think it works.
