dc.description.abstract The need to create a design solution for selfawareness and maintenance of body posture in Pakistan, among males and females, is discussed in this study on Refo rmer (a wearable device to correct and maintain posture), particularly during lengthy hours of work and repetitive operations. Here we take into consideration that every third Pakistani is suffering from backache, headache, joint, neck pain and is double among females and how this adversely affects their daily lives, ability to work, trust, cognitive ability and general health. There are many alternatives for posture correction and maintenance with the boom in the wearable sector, and they are also quite effective, but very less work has been done for posture trainers as a statement wearable. Some of the reasons why this problem is untouched are due to the absence of consciousness, effort and self-awareness that will be discussed further in the article as well. In this age of becoming better and more efficient every day, this project seeks to create a product and lifestyle that enables young people in Pakistan to be more conscious, autonomous and confident, to understand how to be comfortable and healthy, which is highly crucial in a nation where there is recession in every aspect of life and scarcity of trusted professionalism. en_US
