From a knife with a safety guard to a chopping board with a side tray, the utensils Kevin Chiam has developed could be helpful to the blind and visually impaired, if he can resolve one problem.
Singaporean designer Kevin Chiam developed a set of cooking tools for the visually impaired in his final year at the National University of Singapore. The problem? Finding someone to help him bring his product range to market.
While volunteering at the Singapore Association of the Visually Handicapped (SAVH), Chiam was puzzled by the numerous scars on the hands and arms of one of its members, Rosie Wong.
