Tired of seeing a small room in the hospital that doesn’t cure you but makes you feel more uncomfortable? Then there is a solution for it. The “Vita lie-flat hospital chair” gives you the pleasure of a bed and a chair in one. This chair is exclusively made for patients that seek support to their back and legs while resting. It can be converted into a bed in a minute and chair again in the same time. It can be adjusted to an appropriate angle that the patient requires. Even 180 degrees is possible to give the patient a complete rest and a comfortable night.
Looking at the design, it looks to me as a stylish one accompanied by soft cushions like bed on the top. It is very easy to move from one place to another and this is possible due to the wheels present. The positioning of the arm support is perfect for the angles at which the chair can be bent. Its mirror finish gives it a shiny look. It’s made of steel and this ensures that it has a huge life span and will work for you over a long period of time.

Do you know that based on research, the collapsible transport chairs are difficult for the uninitiated to open or close ? And by horizontally stacking the chairs, space-saving is increased by a third and the chairs are always ready to use. Based on that goal and the high volume patients in a Mega Hospital, Aaron Daley designed “Levo” to address the need for conspicuous storage and intuitive usage.
Levo also removes the traditional mechanical adjustments such as the collapsible footrests and replacing them with a single foot platform, which make Levo becomes a safer and more intuitive experience. The platform serves as both a leg-lifter and a brake, thus eliminating the need for unnecessary bending. This benefits the patient and the attendant pushing the chair.

Story behind this suitcase bike from the designer Gosha Galitsky : Being a big bicycle enthusiast, it always bothered me to see how little cooperation exists between public transport and bicycles. It seems to be a perfect solution for commuting- an alliance between safe intercity transport (such as trains, buses and airplanes) and short-range non polluting bicycles which can zip you through the congested city like a breeze and park in your room or your cubicle at work.However, I only saw this harmony take place in some places in Europe (Italy is especially biker- friendly) and in some areas of the US, mostly on the west coast. All this in spite of rising awareness for environmental issues, growing congestion within city limits and an immense growth in the popularity of cycling for commuting as well as for sport. So I tried to find what was preventing this alliance from happening. After a certain observation and research, I discovered some interesting things. Read the rest of this entry »
