Women’s Safety (NL)

By using the powerful relationships between scent & emotion, and confidence through embodiment, PosturAroma helps women feel safer by enhancing their posture. By sensing the angle of the back and using scent as trigger, the user is reminded to keep her head up, and straighten her back when stepping into the world. Walk proud to feel confident, look confident, be safe.

PosturAroma received the Best Design Case Award at the 9th International Conference on Design & Emotion themed “Colors of Care”  held in Bogotá, Colombia in Oct 2014.
