The Stair Chair

Wheelchair Q5 is a mobility solution the disabled community has been waiting for. When the wheelchair operator is faced with stairs, hills or other uneven surfaces, they only have to switch modes to tackles obstacles. By making more areas accessible, the design aims to increase the user’s sense of independence and confidence. Not only does it break previously impassable barriers, but it breaks the stigma of a traditional wheelchair with a futuristic, friendly look.

Designer: Massimiliano Englaro
