As electronic gadgets have evolved and multiplied, the typical wall power outlet has remained a stubbornly primitive and occasionally elusive beast. Power strips can help, but most get too crowded too quickly especially when you have more than one of those bulky AC adapters looking for a home. That's why we love the E-rope: a 2006 IDEA (Industrial Design Excellence Award) winner that does for the power strip what minibars did for drinking. Just put together as many of the modular E-rope sockets as you need for a particular outlet, plugging away to create anything from a small power nub to a full-on socket king snake. The plugs rotate 180° in case you want your custom power strips bend around corners. The E-rope can even lighten up your power bill, since twisting them 90° will cut off the electricity (it's said that 10% of power in a home is used by electronics in standby mode). You can't buy the E-rope sockets yet, but we hope designers Chul Min Kang and Sung Hun Lim's IDEA-winning idea gets a manufacturer soon if only so we can stare at those cool blue lights.
