The project is addressed to people using active wheelchairs. The designer wanted to create accessories that would give wheelchair users more independence and freedom by meeting their particular needs. As a result, she designed a system which consists of three elements: a stiffened base fixed behind the backrest, a bag which can be easily placed there, and a smaller bag which can be fixed in the front, on the frame. Thanks to this solution, wheelchair users are able to store and transport the less necessary objects at the back, and have their valuables and personal possessions within sight and close at hand.
