Gla Gla

When creating a distinctly Croatian souvenir for the island of Krk designers came up with a puzzle teaching the players ancient Glagolitic scripture as it appears on the Baska stone tablet (dating back to 1100 AD). Puzzle pieces are made out of olive trees, grown on the island of Krk since ancient Greece. Gla Gla condenses thousands of years of culture into a game allowing the users to piece together bits of Croatian history from the island of Krk and recombine them into new stories and words in any language.

Morok

Morok is a new visual story of the famous deductive game Werewolf. Players can try the role of the Inquisition or the Plague Doctor, or can become possessed by the Japanese demons. Cards style is inspired by mysterious Tarot and contains esoteric and occult symbols. It is made in an expressionist manner using 3D graphics, classic art materials and stylization of ancient murals and engravings. To keep the esoteric style, cards size was chosen equal to the Tarot size. The game is made of paperboard with full-color printing, UV varnish and foil so it can be a wonderful gift

Pike

Pike is an articulated wooden doll. A toy for both small and big children. It is not only a toy but also a poser model for artists and a figure for stop-motion animators. The body parts are easily put together with elastic cords. It does not require any tool thanks to the joint mechanism. Disassembling and reassembling is also a part of the game. It is simply a wooden friend for all ages.

Vegetable

The toy tools provide cutting, pressing, and squeezing to help children make different dough shapes. However, many toy dough tools on the market are based on geometric shapes. Therefore, the team combined both children's ergonomic considerations and different vegetables' shapes to design this tool set. The design challenge was to identify the right ergonomic that can fit children hand size so the team produced many sketch models in order to test the comfort.

The team designed four cute animal shapes so children can learn to understand different animals and creative different hair styles for them to develop their own craft skills. The team made a large area of the pressure plate on the bottom of the animals, so children can easily operate. Children need to put the dough inside the animal toy, and through squeezing, the dough hair will be squeezed out and trim them. Dough is a material that can be reused. Moreover, the toy is suitable for playing with other people, such as friends and parents, and creates a lot of fun by making funny hair.
