Crest - A Lifejacket Inspired By Waves

This project revolves around the redesign of a lifejacket, a conventional personal flotation device (PFD), drawing inspiration from the dynamic motion of ocean waves. Waves symbolize movement, fluidity, and progression. In this context, the lifejacket is conceptualized with adjustable backpack-like straps to emulate the rhythmic movement associated with waves. These adjustable straps facilitate versatility, allowing wearers to comfortably don the lifejacket over various types of attire.
