Cutlery is a core part of our culinary culture. The work “Yerim” (Turkish for “I eat”) involved developing a set of inclusive cutlery tailored to the needs of people with Parkinson’s. Stigmatising special solutions are often rejected by those affected, which is why the work takes a new design approach that makes use easier through form and aesthetic. The work is an invitation to rethink our food culture and to make to it more openly, more accessibly and more variedly experiencable.
The project deals with SDG 3, “Good Health and Well-Being”, and SDG 10, “Reduce Inequalities”.
