Using Design To Battle Covid-19
Designers come up with innovative ways to tackle the pandemic.
AROUND THE WORLD, designers are not sitting still when it comes to battling the coronavirus pandemic. They may not be healthcare experts, but that is not stopping them from working together with medical professionals to find solutions, or even coming up with innovative creations of their own.
Yong Jie Yu, founder of local multidisciplinary innovation agency, Stuck Design, says "smart design and innovation have a big role in the fight against Covid-19."
Earlier in the year, Stuck Design put out an open call to collaborate with healthcare workers. They have since designed six products that aid in the battle with coronavirus. Most are not yet in production, "but by openly sharing these projects, we hope to make them available for those who need it," says co-founder Donn Koh.
