Clothing for the vision impaired

Tactus—Latin for "touch"—is a clothing line designed to empower vision-impaired individuals through touch, texture, and intuitive design.

Choosing an outfit is simple when you can see, but for 285 million vision-impaired people worldwide, it’s a challenge tied to independence.

Fashion brands often prioritise visual appeal, overlooking the needs of Vision-impaired individuals. Some brands include Braille, but that’s not enough—identifying armholes, buttons, or the front of a shirt remains difficult. Tactus makes dressing effortless and stylish, proving fashion can be both accessible and empowering.

What do you think of my project? Are there any features or improvements you’d suggest?

Multi-Purpose Convertible Coffee Table to Working-From-Home Desk

As working from home has increased since the COVID-19 lockdowns, there is a genuine need for furniture that is office/work friendly and can be multi-purpose in a home. My major design project will address this issue as I will develop a piece of furniture that will convert from a modern coffee table into a work-from-home desk with an attachable side cabinet. I will also integrate and incorporate a range of modern technology in my design to ease working from home. The interior of the cabinet will also be customisable to a person's liking.

Dollhouse to Support Young Autistic Children

The purpose of my dollhouse design is to help meet the needs of children with ASD, and incorporate that into one space that encourages mental and tactile stimulation and growth. The goal is to make this a product that helps a child learn, grow, and emotionally regulate. I plan to meet these needs by building a dollhouse that encourages an ergonomic relationship. My product consists of various rooms filled with items that the children can engage with. Underneath, there will be a considerable amount of space for the storage of all smaller items, this makes transportation and tidiness much easier.
