Multi-purpose-magic-surface! - Yanko Design

I think the best manner to measure out how good a pattern is, is to see how many lives it can truly enhance. The Press Fit by Sahar Madanat was adult initially every bit a surface to aid people suffering from Parkinson's Disease, but when she debuted it at the Amman Blueprint Calendar week 2017, she was approached by a sailor who wanted to use the same production on ships likewise, to prevent items from moving about or products from falling off surfaces equally the send rocked backwards and forrard. Press Fit suddenly saw itself 'plumbing fixtures' into diverse scenarios.

Developed every bit a ameliorate and more than infinite efficient version of the Red Dot Laurels winning Pushpin Tray, the Press Fit is a modular surface comprising multiple hexagonal members. These members come with a basic spring action and move downwardly when a weight is placed on them. What you get is an intelligent grid that forms the shape of any product you place on information technology, finer belongings products that are placed on it. The Press Fit provides a surface that prevents products from sliding or tipping over even if tilted every bit much as 30 degrees. Seeing its applications in trays for the disabled/elderly/children (or even in the hospitality manufacture), packaging for products, or fifty-fifty smart surfaces to exist used in cars, planes, and fifty-fifty ships. There are so many problems the Press Fit could solve!
