Product designer Mars Hwasung Yoo about project: ” Objects used to create fixed idea of form and even human imagination. Most products have own typical shapes to present their functions. These products, switching elements over to something that have similar shapes, seem to be useless because the original elements are already fulfilled their basic functions. However, this is not only converting shapes, but also contributing to various stories which make people imagine by themselves. What we design create opportunities to imagine.”

How to interest children in books? Library for children in your home. A traditional family library has been transformed into an appealing place for kids by the creative Madrid-based studio, Playoffice designing exclusively kids spaces that encourage learning through playing.

“Reading Net” is a wonderful way to show kids that reading can be fun and entertaining. It makes the boundaries between playing and reading disappear. A cute trick to keep them “busy”.

Kids perceive the world differently: our rules and limits don’t make sense to them. Reading Playoffice’s manifesto we get to see also why. For kids, the world we live in is a wonderful and enormous playground: walls are for painting, bathtubs for swimming, furniture is for climbing. In this colourful universe of endless possibilities, a suspended “hideout” such as the Reading Net, where kids can sit, lay down or even hang upside down sounds like fun.

Heat Sensitive furniture by Jay Watson

toma — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 17:32:40 +0000

Linger a Little Longer

Remember when you were scolded for not using a coaster? Worry no more…. A deceptively understated design with a dynamic twist. Making entertaining that bit more fun (while also commenting on how ‘precious’ we can become about the functionality of furniture, or oblivious to our impact on our surroundings) the thermochromic finish of the table and benches responds to the heat of any crockery (or body parts!) placed on it, to leave an ephemeral ‘watermark.’
