Positives
Role
Designer
Positives is a kinesthetic model for design learning. Using a two dimensional pattern that can be translated into a three dimensional structure, Positives can be reconstructed in an infinite number of ways, acting as both a puzzle and building toy.
Ethical Drivers
This project was conceived as a model to explore urgent design challenges regarding the environment, education and the economy. Positives is educational as a kinesthetic model for manipulating the physical environment, environmentally friendly with respect to the materials used and economically efficient in its use of a low-cost, minimal waste fabrication process.
S, M, L, XL
The pieces are meant to allude to fragments of design at all scales, from typography to urban infrastructure. This allows users to explore forms unconstrained by traditional design disciplines.
Packaging
The packaging, inspired by the classic pizza box 🍕, was designed with sustainability in mind. There’s a key for fitting all of the pieces back in the box printed on the interior.
Play Experience
The pieces can be reassembled in an infinite number of configurations, allowing for a meditative and self-guided play experience.
