McDonalds Fries Umbrella Stand

Sometimes the simplest ideas make the biggest impact. This McDonald’s display takes everyday yellow umbrellas and turns them into a playful illusion of golden French fries, perfectly housed in the brand’s iconic red fry box. The result is an eye-catching umbrella stand that’s both functional and clever. It’s a design that sparks delight, reinforces brand recognition, and makes passersby stop for a second look. It looks like this was in Japan, but unfortunately, I couldn’t track down the designer. Whoever came up with it deserves major kudos for this creative and memorable brand moment!
