Created by Chilean design students Camille Faúndez and Silvestre Yunge, the HUBO CUBO is an educational board game concept.
The game is designed to improve the reading and writing skills of children aged four and older, who are receiving primary education. By combining rhymes, syllables and letters, children have the ability to create a much larger narrative within the game.
The packaging has been conceived as a stackable system that affords the user storage space, but can also be quickly disassembled and arranged for play. To break it down, there are three stackable trays which contain the game's movable pieces, a cover and a central vertebrae that acts as a holder for the instruction manual, a handle for easy transportation and which also joins the separate components of the game.
