Design for learning and play!

nest_wheelbarrow_1

Good design makes a product useful. The Nest is a wheelbarrow/chair designed for children in their pre-school phase. It not only exercises their motor skills, it also gives them something interesting to interact with. The fact that it is a 2-in-1 product not only means a smaller carbon footprint, it also helps by giving kids a wonderful lesson in design! Additionally, the nest makes minimal use of resources by being machined entirely out of a 4′ X 4′ plywood sheet.

Mini-boo for the mini you!

mini_boo_stroller_1

Mini-Boo, such a cute name for a stroller! Designed using British style and sensibilities, the Mini-Boo is a baby stroller that doubles up into a baby seat for the car. The lower frame can then be stored in any car trunk. The stroller does more than just be a mobile shelter for the child. It also has audio-video integration that allows the mum to keep tabs on her little one even while she’s driving. Perfect for the over-protective, independent mommy!
