Innovative Accessory Design Recognized for Enhancing Mobility and Functionality for Upper Limb Injured/Amputees
COMO, CO, ITALY, August 23, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — The A’ Design Award, a highly prestigious and well-recognized award in the field of accessory design, has announced Ke Zheng and Shuhao Xuanyuan‘s “Barebag Series” as the Silver winner in the Fashion and Travel Accessories Design category. This distinction acknowledges the Barebag Series as a notable and innovative design that aligns with and advances industry standards and practices.
The Barebag Series is a groundbreaking accessory that addresses the challenges faced by millions of upper limb injured/amputees in carrying belongings and performing daily tasks with one hand. By integrating versatile bag hooks into cross-body fashion accessories, the Barebag Series allows users to comfortably carry various types of bags hands-free at their waist. This design not only promotes social equity but also significantly improves the quality of life for its users.
What sets the Barebag Series apart is its seamless integration of functionality and fashion. The design features a soft leather exterior and hard 3D-printed recycled PLA hook prosthetics, enabling quick adaptation to different configurations and separate cleaning and recycling at the end of its life cycle. The sustainable rPET strap is equipped with a specially engineered 3D-printed slider that allows smooth one-handed adjustment, enhancing user experience and independence.
The recognition from the A’ Fashion Industry Awards serves as a motivation for Ke Zheng and Shuhao Xuanyuan to continue pushing boundaries and exploring innovative solutions in the field of accessory design. This achievement is expected to inspire future projects and directions within their brand, fostering further advancements that prioritize inclusivity and improve the lives of individuals with disabilities.
