Growing wheelchair for children from 4

The design concept focuses on the development of children's mechanical active wheelchairs, which face frequent challenges in the form of high acquisition costs and short service life.
The goal was to create a wheelchair with functional ergonomics that can adapt to the needs of a child between the ages of 4 and 10.

A small toolbox is included in the design to allow easy and immediate expansion of the trolley.

The basic pillars of the design are practicality, durability, variability and elements of childlike playfulness in the form of colourful details.
