– Team 30
We liked the idea and functionality in this version. The only thing we would like to add is more aesthetics, that is, to work out the design better so that it doesn’t look too big. For example, grandparents usually leave this cane somewhere to sit down and it does not interfere with its size
Feedback on the Walking Cane Design Project
Dear Design Team,
We hope this message finds you well. We would like to take a moment to express our gratitude for the exceptional work you put into the design project for the walking cane aimed at our elderly community.
After careful consideration, we are pleased to inform you that we have chosen one of your design options. The creativity and thoughtfulness behind your concepts truly impressed us, and we appreciate the effort you put into understanding the needs of our target users.
Overall, we are very satisfied with the direction of the project and the aesthetics of the design. However, upon creating a prototype, we noticed that the cane could benefit from some minor adjustments. Specifically, we found that adding a couple more wheels would enhance its stability, making it safer and more user-friendly for elderly individuals. This is something we overlooked during the initial discussions. .
Once again, thank you for your hard work and dedication.
Best regards❤️
