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."

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.
