3. Electree by Vivien Muller
A solar cellphone charger caught copy editor Kay-Ann van Rooyen’s eye. The Electree is a bonsai sculpture with small photovoltaic panels at the tip of the branches that capture sunlight and store the power in a battery under the panel at the foot of the tree. It’s designed by French industrial designer Vivien Muller.
