Velcro Wallcovering, 2016

This is a Velcro Wallcovering. It was designed by Braden Young.

This object is not part of the Cooper Hewitt's permanent collection. It was able to spend time at the museum on loan from Braden Young as part of Access+Ability.

It is dated 2016.

The Velcro Wallcovering provides storage for common objects—remotes, pill bottles, eyeglasses—so they are not forgotten. Velcro tiles can be placed on an entire wall or one area of the room based on an individual’s need.

It is credited Lent by Braden Young.
