You know, I know, even the smokers know that smoking kills. But yet they smoke on and on and do not stop. Not even those anti-smoking warnings written on the front of the packets are able to have any effect on a few hard-edged puffers that in reality, that extra ciggie is not such a great idea, so designer Fiona Carswell has come up with the creation of an anti-smoking jacket which he hopes could do the job in its place.
The Smoking Jacket, by Fiona Carswell, is included with an integrated pair of lungs on the front that function as an iconographic “warning system”. The polite smoker can puff out the smoke into a “container” at the collar, to pass up blowing it in the faces of people around them. The smoke after that filters into a set of translucent lungs at the front of the jacket. Over time, the lungs turn yellow and stain and if you don’t smoke, the stain and smoke will finally fritter away.
The whole design makes use of visceral communique to remind smokers what they’re doing to their bodies, a substitute to utilizing patches, pills and chewing gum.
Really a great idea!
