luc mottaz from switzerland



designer's own words:
Blind people don't visualise a street, a house or a way. This "CityChapelet" could be an interesting help
for them to be able to walk in the city counting the steps' number from a known starting point to an unknown one.
As they are custom to do on learned way. The pearls have three differents shapes meaning: go ahead, turn left,
turn right. The “CityChapelet” can be sent for each new unknown usefull way to a blind person (for ex. school, club,
association, meeting...) Just a key for the independance. The “CityChapelet” can be a work oppotunity for blind
associations members. It can be an easy low cost help solutions.
