The cube was made from panels with 60% compressed scratch cards leftover from the production of the Sazka Pumptrack.
The cover is made from recycled leatherette that was originally meant for car seats.
The cube contains soft foam inserts that provide comfort, absorb pressure, and prevent bedsores for safe use.
The cube is a new innovation and will assist with rehabilitation at the Paraple Center.

"My thesis was about prioritizing function over form. Through this collaboration, we created a verticalization aid that pushes the boundaries of sustainability in rehabilitation equipment. It’s proof that design can successfully merge sustainability with functionality."

Eva Nováková"This project beautifully shows how collaborations are growing – whether with the Paraple Center or Václav. In this case, their paths even crossed to create something no one might have expected. It also reflects how our reLosy platform is progressing: it’s not just about beautiful design pieces but also about meaningful solutions with real use – in this case, directly in rehabilitation."

"At the Paraple Center, we have been focused on finding simple and sustainable ways to help people with spinal cord injuries stand up. Thanks to the reLosy project and the collaboration with Václav F. Matyáš, we were able to bring our ideas to life and create a prototype of the verticalization cube that provides these possibilities. We are currently testing the aid and identifying the target group of people it can help stand on their own feet."
