Designing the Absurd

Wearable

For our final assignment, we were supposed to design a wearable. I've been thinking a lot about note taking and the importance of it in our modern lives where there's so much happening that it's hard to keep track of the many ongoing life events. I decided to make a wearable note-taking gadget. This thing consists of a whiteboard that can slide in and out and a marker holder. The internals are made of worbla thermoplastic shaped to fit different wrist and arm sizes. The outer layer is a comfortable breathable fabric. The end result came out better than I anticipated.
