The application of the industrial-design mindset of problem solving into the product design category of apparel design is something that intrigued me.Work-wear can be seen as professional sports apparel or equipment, for a usergroup with varying body sizes and shapes this of course in combination with trying to cater to users with widely different needs.The work-wear industry is one of many where users of many different professions are often bundled together as a wholeand given their equipment based on what would serve the average of this large group the best and as with many other categories of product design, it is driven by cost effectiveness. In many cases, this works just fine, but when it doesn’t, that is where problems occur. In this project the topic of “futureworkwear” is approached with a user centered design perspective to understand the issues and problems found within the area of workwear to better be able to provide innovative and new solutions to problems of visibility, ergonomic adjustability and tool carrying. The project also aims to explore the innovative future of smart garments and how this is best implemented in a natural and meaningful way providing the users of work-wear with added value.The result of the project is a new toolcarrying belt & harness combination, giving the user the possibility to adjust how and where tools are worn on the body and being able to ergonomically adjust how the tool carrier fits. All while also equipping the user with smart technology to provide a safer work environment in a non-intrusive way.
