Movable nursing room (Shinagawa Season Terrace Box-type nursing room)
<Design category for making it easier to give birth and raise children>

【overview】
The "Mobile Breastfeeding Room" is a nursing room that answers the "wishes" of mothers and everyone. It is a box-shaped room that can be easily set up just by placing it, even in facilities that do not have a nursing space. In keeping with the characteristics of the facility, the coloring is not too childish, and the design is playful, with a trailer motif, so that the nursing room can be moved when and wherever it is needed. While the equipment is simple as a place where nursing can be done, it is equipped with a system that notifies users of the usage status, so that the current usage status can be checked on a smartphone even if the user is in a remote location. It not only improves convenience for users, but also takes into consideration the efficiency of Operation of the facility and ensuring safety.
