The Collectible WOO Toys Represent Different Elements in Nature
Alyson Wyers — December 31, 2014 — Life-Stages
Made out of wood, these handcrafted toys each represent a different natural element: air, earth and water. WOO toys are designed for children and are intended to be collected. Minimalist in design, the set consists of the WOO sailboat (water), WOO bulldozer (earth) and WOO airplane (air).
The handcrafted toys sit at the intersection between beautiful design and function. They are a beautiful addition to your kid's toy box and your home. Developed by architecture, graphic and product design studio Vrtíška Žák, the set was inspired by motion and amazement. Practical as well as collectible, the items have a natural wood finish, sleek surface varnish and bent veneer.
The collection debuted at Designblok 2014 in Prague.
