# 2017 Door Camouflage |
Door Camouflage is a pop-up photo display shelf, designed to prevent Alzheimer’s patients from wandering out of their house. The project is inspired by the dangers of Alzheimer’s patients leaving their homes, as well as expert suggestions that negative behaviours are best addressed through distraction. Made entirely of paper, Door Camouflage transforms a two-dimensional poster into a three-dimensional photo display, using a simple method of paper folding, similar to that of a pop-up book. By disguising the door and recalling memories, this display turns a dangerous situation into a moment of joyful reflection. Door Camouflage is a low-cost solution to one of the biggest day-to-day problems faced by Alzheimer’s patients and their caregivers.
