grab

Grab is a prototype handle which aids people diagnosed with Arthritis, a project set as a live brief in conjunction with Versus Arthritis.

Taking ‘grab’ literally, I worked closely with my mother who suffers from Rheumatoid Arthritis in the hands to design a universal tool, crafted to help remove any sort of medical stigma, that can be used in many different scenarios to aid with grabbing things around the home. From opening heavy doors, fridges and cabinets, to helping carry heavy bags or items, it is designed with pure functionality in mind using first hand research and sessions with Versus Arthritis to drive towards the end product.
