The Dewdrop Tree

My trip to Africa was the most memorable and the one thing that I take away from it is the stark reminder of the desert and its arid face. Water is a real issue and although new innovations are making life easier, we still have a long way to go. The Dewdrop Tree is a water collection unit that biomimics a tree and traps dew to collect water for use. Take a look at how it works.

Water Collection Made Easy

There are many ideas out there, which are low-cost and effective in collecting waters in rural and remote areas. These are areas like refugee camps in Africa where running water is not easily accessible. The Water Roll is a container that can be rolled along a path and by adding a removable faucet; you can directly use it to drain the water. The container is covered with recycled-tire material that adds a layer of protection and extends the useful life.

Water Roll won the finalist award of IDEA Design Award 2014.
