Piece of furniture that eases the process of getting dressed for people with no upper limbs. It is formed by three main sections; the t-shirt bars, the pants' hooks and a padded seat. The bars and hooks are adjustable so the product can be adapted to the user's height. The padded seat acts as storage, facilitating the transport of the product and its bars.

Getting dressed with no arms can be quite challenging. Currently, people in this situation have no other option but to develop the skill of getting dressed or make use of inadequate and uncomfortable tools.
The inclined bars allow the user to hang any upper body garment and put it on with much more efficiency. It is much easier than throwing the garment with their feet until it is well positioned. The vertical bar and hooks are focused on helping with putting pants on.

Brief
Develop a product as part of a team where members complement each other’s skills, share a cohesive style, and align in their academic goals.
