Inspiration

Wheelchairs haven't changed much in the last 100 years. This is a new, modern take on the manual wheelchair, one that adapts itself to everyday life. We have designed it around solutions that we found to four major fears faced frequently by wheelchair users, with the least parts possi-ble to achieve a lightweight design . Its design was based on research that involved interviews with users and personal try outs on wheelchairs that are available at the Garches foundation in Paris. We've discovered that it's not possible to create the universal wheelchair, that is comfortable, lightweight and cost-effective for everyone. In order to design for the widest scope of people possible, we chose to design this for the physically handicapped and for the elderly with walking disabilities.

All this was created with some objectives in mind, one is to help the newly handicapped adapt to their new life state by making a wheelchair that adapts to their psychological evolution. This was inspired on the chart of the valley of change (la valley du changement), a recognised reference that illus-trates a person's emotional journey after suffering a major life crisis. Because re-learning how to go about the daily-life is usually a struggle, we have designed this wheelchair to make the user more comfortable physically and to help them gain confidence in themselves.

Aesthetically pleasing, it's form was inspired on the art of origami, achieving a sleek and edgy look. The seating is designed to be cost-effective to manu-facture because in effect it is made of one sheet of plastic that's simply bent into shape for production.

Concept

S o l u t i o n t e c h n i q u e

On the existing wheelchair there is a fifth wheel that's small is optional for those who need more stability. However, it doesn't work too well to keep someone from falling back.

We found a practical solution for this problem. Basically the big wheels can change into three posi-tions. When the user feels unsteady they can put the wheels back for more support. As they start to gain confidence, they can slide the wheels forwards and gain more agility to move around.

To do this we changed the shape of the traditional structure, to a longer L shape. There is a button on the side that will lock and unlock the wheels' position.

Coussins de flanc

From rigid to modular

During our project, we realised that the seating on every wheelchair is the same for everyone but at the same time everybody has different body types and experience discomfort in different ways. Therefore we have created a range of cushions that allow the user to regulate the comfort of their seat. The set is made up of a seat, a back and two armrest

cushions. The seat’s interior as well as underneath the cushions are covered by Velcro. All that needs to be done is to fix down the seat, the back and the armrests cushions into place.

We also wanted to give the user the chance to personalise their wheelchair if they ever wanted to, by creating a range of different coloured cushions to choose from. Finally, the user of this wheelchair will be able to choose between an inclined or straight seat, and if they ever lose or gain weight all that they need to do is swap the cushions instead of the whole wheel-

chair!

Disassembly in three simple steps.

This wheelchair is designed with the idea of easy transportation and arrangement in standard cars without hassle. Its comprised of three parts, the seating, the structure and the wheels, so the assembly/disassembly is simply sliding off the seat which is nor-mally fixed to the metal manually by a clip. The wheels come off by pushing in the central buttons.

The next step for Bowers & Wilkins is to create a small, lightweight portable speaker to play music sent from a mobile phone via bluetooth. Inspired by a honeycomb structure, the Hexa Series are hand-sized hexagonal speakers that come with one touch-screen volume control unit. The units are stuck to eachother with small magnets, so in e�ect they can be spread around the room for a greater surround sound e�ect. Their magnetism makes it possible for them to stay onto any vertical magnetic surface. The hexas may be stacked neatly for transportation.

MyTube est une enceinte portable tenant dans une main. Reliée par bluetooth, cette enceinte est prévue pour jouer la musique contenue dans votre téléphone mobile. Le design est simple et intuitif, il su�t de tourner MyTube pour l’allumer ou l’éteindre. Deux capteurs situés aux extrémités de l’enceinte permettent d’en contrôler le volume. Un côté plat a été prévu sur le tube pour l’empêcher de rouler. MyTube est rechargeable via USB.

Grâce à l’absence de commandes super�ues, l’utilisateur com-prendra intuitivement son fonctionnement dès le premier emploi. Il s’agit d’une enceinte petite et légère, ce qui la rend pratique pour les déplacements, tout en di�usant un son de haute qualité. 18

People can listen to music, but they need to see it to connect with it on a deeper level. Computer programs like

windows media player already synchronise holograms with music.

The Mirage is a concept of a portable speaker that creates a musical holo-gram. When the music starts, an enig-matic display of sound waves will appear in the air above the speaker, showing the movement of the music

and colours that change with moods.

The on/off activation is prompted by waving the hand along the length of the parting of the dome. A mobile phone connected via Bluetooth con-trols the speaker volume and the

choice of song.

The bowl

This is the royal canin food bowl for dogs and cats. What is special about it is that it has three indicators, morning, midday and evening that appear by

simply rotating the bowl clockwise. This helps the owner to realise when was the last time in the day that their pet was fed.

This bowl is designed to help owners keep track of how many times a day their pet eats, with the objective to avoid overfeeding by mistake. It comes in specially handy in a household where two or

more people share the responsibility of feeding the pet.

After being presented to Royal Canin this bowl was chosen to

go into production.

This is the substitute for the universal measuring cup.

This is a simple and easy solution to get precisely the right portion of pet food for each specific pet. In fact, it’s more prac-tical because on the measuring cup there are too many units to read, mean-ing we can easily be mistaken with it.

It's mechanism is inspired on pepper grinders. The user can refer to the pack-aging that will indicate how many times to twist to get the right portion for their pet's dietary requirements. The amount that comes out with each full turn is controlled and will always be the same.

Personal ProjectDesign for children’s play: Luci

life-size prototype model (below)

39

Children nowadays normally choose digital toys and video games over the traditional toys. However, studies have shown that tradi-tional toys allow children to better develop their imagination than with digital toys.

To get children back to traditional play, the Luci electronic plush toy was created.

Inspired on Tamagotchis, Luci's neutral facial expression was designed with the intention of letting the child interpret it’s mood (happy, sad...).

How it works:

As the child strokes the tail it lights up in synchronization with the hand motion, dim-ming afterwards as the child stops stroking it. The light evolves from blue to yellow to represent Luci's emotions. The soft and furry long tail can act as a head rest while playing with Luci.
