Reflex Bottle

A water bottle for people with walkers.

With special attention given to people with physical limitations such as Arthritis, especially in the case of elderly people, this project aimed to create a bottle that would easily grip to the bars of a walker. The problem scenario was analyzed in a variety of methods. Elderly users were interview about their needs, and empathetic testing was completed with a variety of existing bottles. The final form was created using traditional modelling methods.
