The Brief

In India, carpenters have a very unique role in construction. The technology hasn’t trickled down to the everyday carpenter who takes up small jobs. It has a direct impact on their health and wellness since the toolkits are outdated and sometimes makeshift. The aim of this project was to create a product to support their physical health and help manage the tools better.

The Concept

The final concept integrated bits and pieces of different ideas and ergonomically sound concepts to create a backpack for carpenters.
