Leveraged Freedom Chair
The Leveraged Freedom Chair (LFC) is the mountain bike of wheelchairs. It enables people with disabilities in developing countries to move beyond the pavement, providing them with the mobility they need to lead independent lives. I developed and illustrated their assembly manual. The international nature of the LFC required that the manual use minimal text for ease of cross cultural use and comprehension.
