About the Work
We wanted to revolutionize deodorant design to include everyone, however they are able to move. Degree Inclusive is the world’s first inclusive deodorant for people who are blind or have limited sight and for people with upper limb mobility difficulties – and many of us who lose vision or mobility as we get older.
By co-creating with the disability community, we have designed a deodorant that’s easier to handle, identify, open, close and apply. It can be opened and used even without hands by using your mouth or feet.
We believe that inclusive design is simply better design, and the result is also gender neutral and refillable.
Our aim was to drive US-first mass media awareness for Degree Inclusive, and focus our awareness and build credibility with people living with disabilities.
We reframed disability positively within the media and challenged conventional design by getting the world excited about the first deodorant designed for people living with disabilities by people living with disabilities.
We put people with disabilities, their needs and their stories front and centre of the communication.
The process of developing the product was inclusive from the beginning. We ideated, co-created and launched this design together with the disabled community.
Similarly, the communication was inclusive. The key media spokesperson was the agency’s disabled designer who led the product development. The launch featured two hero films telling the story of Nick, a barber with no hands who is also a boxer and Maria, who is blind and roller skates beautifully. We framed their narratives positively by portraying the truth of their experience in an unflinching and empowering way.
Their stories and the story of the product and its co-collaborators were told on social media and were embraced and amplified by the disabled community - as well as by some of the most high-profile media outlets in the US and beyond.
