普段は救急医療用のバッグを手掛ける細川 晋さんが作ったのは、磁石を活用した留め具によって、片手で簡単に開閉のできるランドセル。きっかけは、生まれつき右手に障害がある孫も使えるランドセルを考案したことでした。この取り組みを通して、かつての孫と同じように市販のランドセルを扱えずに困っている子どもやその家族をサポートしていくことで、みんなが笑顔で小学校の入学式を迎えてほしいと語る細川さんの思い描く未来とは？
Mr. Susumu Hosokawa, who typically designs bags for emergency medical use, created a randoseru backpack that opens and closes easily with one hand thanks to a magnetic fastener. The project began when he set out to design a randoseru backpack that his own grandchild, who was born with a disability affecting their right hand, could use. Through this initiative, he aims to support other children and their families who struggle with standard randoseru backpacks, just as his grandchild once did. Mr. Hosokawa says that he wants to work to ensure that every child can attend their elementary school entrance ceremony with a smile on their face. What kind of future does he envision?
