ACCOMPANYING Wheelchair

Existing wheelchairs are solely designed for the comfort of wheelchair users. However, wheelchair pushers tend to get tired legs and feet after an extended period of standing and walking. This is especially true for elderly wheelchair pushers and in situations where there is no public seating or rest stop available. With this observation as a starting point, Accompanying Wheelchair is a thoughtful design that considers the needs of the wheelchair pusher. At the same time, it creates opportunities for heart-to-heart communication between wheelchair users and a family member, friend, or wheelchair attendant. Its design is intended to make every applicable scenario warm and comfortable for both people. Red Dot Award: Design Concept | Concept | Ageing
