Futuristic ICU Beds

The aim of ICU Bed is to assist in improving the quality of intensive care of patients in very critical condition thanks to its innovative design solution for Intensive Care Units and Anesthesiology and Resuscitation Units. Design of ICU Bed was developed by Daniel Pavlik as project in cooperation with Linet company. Main intention was to create modern, almost futuristic, unified design which matches all strict safety standards. Combination of white and light gray color is chosen not only because of its aesthetic harmony but also because of its hygienics qualities (dirt could be better seen on white surface). Well the result is indeed a futuristic ICU bed, hopefully this doesn’t make the patients afraid to lay there or feel trapped inside those transparent frame.

The Sweet Donation Bag

                       
Glam Pack for Blood

• The Sweet Donation Bag is an attempt to redesign the blood collection pouch. 
• It features a sleeve with large cut-outs indicating the blood type (A, B, AB & O). The overall design is much more refined than the current bags in use and the packaging looks sturdy. [If only the cut-outs would have indicated Type+ or Type- then I guess the impact would have been better. ]
• Slicker and tidier to look at;
• It won’t reduce the needle-prick pain!
