Array
A modular design system to support and comfort panic attack sufferers. The product allows users to tailor their panic attack prevention strategies to their individual preferences through a range of interchangeable sensory modules. This is combined with the product's ability to record and replicate the vibrations of a loved one's heartbeat to create a personalised and portable device that calms and refocuses the user against panic.
Array
Interchangeable therapeutic modules attach onto the main body through a peg board system. The heartbeat vibrations create a biofeedback in the user’s body, helping to subconsciously lower their heart rate.
Array
The modules are designed to combat panic and promote refocussing through aromatherapy, distraction and reassurance.
Array
The product allows the user to rearrange their methods of coping as and when they like. This flexibility is intended to empower the user. Personalisation is key against panic.

I am an ambitious and driven designer, passionate about colour and trend.
My design language is formed from a passion for music and film culture, which heavily influence my work. I believe that storytelling and mood are key in the design process. I hope to continue to work in the footwear design world, having spent a year as a Footwear Design Intern whilst on placement.
