CUTE EAR SUIT (CES)
Matthew Wong from STUCK
Matthew is visual storyteller who prefers to see things through the lens of a child, approaching design more playfully.
Frontliners protected in hazmat suits face physical discomfort and are hardly identifiable since their faces are covered. By modifying the location of the respirator filters — putting them on the head instead of in front of the face, and re-channelling the exhalation airflow internally — the Cute Ear Suit helps to make the protective outfit friendlier and more more human, and makes facial expressions visible.
