standing wheel by youngsu son from korea

designer's own words:

A wheelchair, designed to be a replacement for walking is used by person for whom walking is difficult or impossible due to illness (physiological or physical), injury, or disability. (A basic manual wheelchair incorporates a seat, foot rests, handles at the back and four wheels). However, it creates problem such as users have lower eye level which isolates them from non-users.

‘Standing Wheel’ suggests a solution to this problem by improving the design of current wheelchair. This will help users to have same eye level and provides better use for both indoor/ outdoor so that finally it will leads to harmonious society
