CARRY ON is a wheelbarrow—an elementary device for transporting and holding materials, activated by human energy.

It is based on one of the first mechanical principles: the lever. A minimal system that redistributes weight, reducing effort through structure rather than technology.

The object operates at the intersection of work and everyday use. It does not introduce complexity, but reaffirms a direct relationship between body, tool, and action.

Form is the result of an optimized industrial process. Each element is reduced to its necessary function, generating a clear and continuous geometry.

CARRY ON is not only a tool, but a reflection on simplicity as a design strategy, where efficiency emerges from reduction and from the active role of the user.
