A French designer named Vivien Muller has come up with a strange new take on a traditional heating system. Dubbed the “Octocube”, this 14″ cube is comprised solely of 90-degree copper tubing with elbows that serve as a radiator for large surface areas. It’s also said to fit anywhere without looking tacky.
What makes this particular radiator unique is the fact that, with the amount of copper tubing comprising the cube as well as the flexibility of the elbow, one could reconstruct the cube to be flat, making the cube more effective at heating a larger room. You still can’t get one, though you could boil a bunch of elbow macaroni, pour it down your pants and call it a day.
