Strado

Designed for the Port of Antwerp, Strado is a wearable posture system that supports and trains the body in motion, developed for and with straddle carrier operators.

For this project, Āto focused on translating field insights into a material solution that integrates seamlessly into daily workwear. The result is a hybrid of product design and ergonomic feedback.

This edition documents the development process, the workers who tested it, and the relationship between design, labour and body.
