Foldable Booster Seats

This Compact Children's Seat Eliminates Bulky Design for Easy Storage

— January 20, 2016 — Art & Design
Car seats can be a cumbersome auto accessory that despite being a travel necessity for children, tends to take up quite a bit of space with its bulky design and shape. Revolutionizing the design of children's seats is the Mifold that features a flattened shape that can easily be stored away thanks to its compact design. This is ideal for constant use, allowing car owners to quickly put the seat together and just as easily take it apart.

The Mifold is a booster seat for children that cleverly adjusts the height of the seat belt to fit the child rather than lifting the child to the seat belt's adult height. This allows the design of the seat to be much smaller in shape and also more cost-effective. With the more compact shape, the seat can also be easily folded and stored away when not in use.
Trend Themes
1. Compact Children's Seats - There is an opportunity for companies to design and create more compact and space-saving children's seats.
2. Flattened Design - Designing products with a flattened shape could be a disruptive innovation for industries that deal with bulky objects, such as car accessories.
3. Adjustable Seat Belts - Incorporating adjustable seat belts into car seat designs could revolutionize the way children's seats are constructed and improve convenience for parents.
Industry Implications
1. Child Car Seat Industry - The child car seat industry has an opportunity to embrace a more compact and innovative design to meet the needs of parents.
2. Automotive Accessories Industry - The automotive accessories industry could benefit from disruptive innovation by creating more compact and space-saving designs for car accessories.
3. Design and Manufacturing Industry - The design and manufacturing industry has an opportunity to explore new ways of creating innovative and functional products with a flattened shape.
