Josh King and Georgi Williams Design the Zeal Lifestyle Walker
References: yankodesign
Josh King and Georgia Williams designed the Zeal Lifestyle Walker, which is a stylish and functional tool for walking as these are often made for the elderly and the design component does not fall at the forefront. The cables of the walker are integrated into the framing for a stealthy look.
The walker also has a baring system for the steering and shock-absorption at the wheels. If any point, a part malfunctions, the team will send out a replacement and it can be replaced by the owner using an Allen key that came with the original walker. Visually, it comes in ice pastel color options instead of the usual clinical hues. Users can select from "sage, onyx, chalk, thistle, and blush."
