Project
In 2018 a law was passed in France to ban wearing gowns with only one closure in the neck that does not protect the intimate parts of patients.
Kit regroups the necessities distributed to patients on their arrival at the hospital.
It contains various disposable items: a gown, a hairnet, a pair of slippers, underwear and a washcloth.
Development
For this project, I studied and rethought the kit given to patients upon arrival at the hospital.
Developed with the support of medical professionals and patients, the design aims to minimize production costs and allow as many items as possible to be recycled after use.
The one-piece gown is designed to protect the intimate parts of the patient better and ease the process of dressing and medical interventions.
