your home isn't a hospital.
why does it suddenly feel like one?
grab bars. shower chairs. walkers. all designed for a hospital, because nobody making them was thinking about you. they only thought about a patient with a problem. so they made something cheap, clinical, and forgettable. they decided you wouldn't notice. they decided you didn't matter. they looked at their own customers and decided that being sick or old or slowing down was reason enough to stop trying.
but having an injury or getting older doesn't change who you are or what you deserve in your home. needing support to move and get through the day is not a lesser way of living. it's just a different one.
TALO was built on the belief that needing things to work differently is no reason to live with less. so we built the brand that should have always existed. because the way you move through the world may change, but the fundamental human need to feel like yourself never does.
we are heads down building something this category has never seen. our first product is coming soon: the Ollie, our take on the commode chair. what we can share in the meantime is the principles we're building it around.
| legacy devices | TALO |
|---|---|
| user research never conducted. the person using the product was never asked. |
user research designed from real conversations with people living with these products every day |
| design process designed around a clinical checklist, not a human being |
design process developed with world-class designers and physical therapists |
| stability flimsy, rickety frames that inspire fear rather than confidence |
stability wide-set weighted base engineered for confidence on every transfer |
| biomechanics standard dimensions, never tested against how people actually move |
biomechanics every dimension engineered with biomechanical input for how people actually move |
| assembly cumbersome, tool-dependent, requires assistance to set up |
assembly tool-free low-mobility fasteners. one person, under five minutes |
| maintenance rough plastic that traps bacteria, degrades, and is difficult to clean |
maintenance non-porous sealed surfaces. non-toxic finishes. wipes clean effortlessly |
| materials cold chrome, institutional plastic, chosen for cost not quality |
materials high-grade, weight-bearing materials chosen for strength, longevity, and stability |
| sustainability no consideration given to materials beyond cost |
sustainability sustainably sourced, non-toxic, low-VOC finishes, built to last beyond a single recovery |
| at home hidden before guests arrive. a source of shame |
at home beautifully blends into your home |
be among the first to function,beautifully.
