Description

“I.AH” is based on the observation that shopping carts are often misused in urban areas. They get stolen, altered and parked randomly throughout the area. But what may be seen as a grievance can also indicate a specific, unsatisfied need of city dwellers. That is whereI.AH looks for a solution in the form of a symbiosis between private shopping trolleys and the classic cart. I.AH is an attempt to be inclusive than before to the different mobility behaviour of users. New accessibility in the form of a sharing model gives users more independence in their everyday lives, empowers their independence, and attempts to encourage them to choose a sustainable means of transport.
