치도(Chido)는 3세부터 8세까지의 어린이를 위한 착용형 수납 제품으로 디자인된 다기능 조끼입니다. 수영에 필요한 용품을 탈부착 가능한 파우치에 담을 수 있어 어린 사용자가 스스로 자신의 소지품을 정리할 수 있습니다. 조절 가능한 스트랩은 아이의 성장에 맞춰 조끼를 알맞게 착용할 수 있도록 해줍니다. 가볍고 발수성이 뛰어나며 통기성 있는 원단이 편안함과 내구성을 제공하고, 열접착 봉제 방식은 물 흡수를 최소화합니다. 자유롭게 꾸밀 수 있는 장식은 정리 정돈을 즐거운 활동으로 만들어 줍니다. 이 디자인은 아이의 자립심을 길러주는 동시에 부모가 짐을 챙기는 수고를 덜어 줍니다.

- Production Technology
- The vest is crafted from lightweight, water-resistant, and breathable fabrics, ensuring comfort and durability. High-density EVA foam padding enhances buoyancy without compromising flexibility. The adjustable straps and modular pouches use reinforced Velcro and snap fasteners for secure attachment. Advanced heat-sealed stitching prevents water absorption, extending longevity. Injection-molded silicone gaskets and anti-fog polycarbonate lenses ensure the goggles offer a snug, clear, and leak-proof fit.
- Design Challenge
- The biggest challenge was balancing functionality, comfort, and child engagement. Ensuring the vest was lightweight yet durable while incorporating modular storage required extensive material testing. Designing an adjustable system that grows with the child without compromising fit or usability was another hurdle. Additionally, making organization fun and intuitive for young children while maintaining manufacturing feasibility required iterative prototyping and user feedback to refine the final design.
- Research
- This project utilized user-centered research to design a wearable storage solution for children, promoting independence and organization. Observational studies and parent interviews identified key pain points in packing swim gear. Prototype testing ensured comfort, durability, and usability. Results showed modular, interactive storage encourages responsibility, reducing parental burden. Insights led to adjustable sizing, detachable pouches, and playful customization, enhancing engagement.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by the challenges parents face when organizing children swim essentials, this design encourages independence and responsibility through a wearable storage solution. Research on child development shows that interactive learning supports better habits. This insight led to the creation of a modular and adjustable vest that makes tidying up enjoyable. By combining practical features with playful elements, the vest turns organization into a fun and educational experience for young children.
- Project Duration
- The project started in February 2025 in Taipei, Taiwan, and is currently in the final development phase. Extensive research, prototyping, and testing were conducted to ensure safety, comfort, and usability for children. The design is scheduled for production in July 2025, with planned exhibitions at international design and children's product fairs.
- Operation Flow
- The vest is worn like a regular jacket, with adjustable straps ensuring a snug fit as the child grows. Detachable pouches allow kids to store their swim gear, making organization simple and fun. The lightweight, water-resistant fabric ensures comfort, while interactive elements, like customizable decorations, encourage engagement. By giving children control over their own belongings, this vest fosters independence and responsibility, making outings smoother for parents.
