The Swedish furniture designer/seller released a set of furniture hacks that anyone can download and 3D-print to make their products more usable by people with disabilities. Bigger light switches, easier-to-grab handles and extenders for couch legs are among the designs produced so far in the ThisAbles project, an initiative of IKEA Israel and non-profits Milbat and Access Israel.
IKEA says the project fits with its vision to “create a better everyday life for as many people as possible”. Each add-on is designed to fit at least one popular IKEA product, and its file can be accessed for free from anywhere in the world.
