SOCK DRAWER
SOCK DRAWER
fall 2019
What could possibly be more novelty than novelty socks? Maybe the box in which they arrive. The inspiration for this concept was Hello Socks, a brand of Swedish novelty socks. Their boxes are fun but didn’t quite match up to the absurdity of the actual item. The box proposal has legs that can be popped out and a handle, so the box itself can actually be transformed into a little dresser for just (3 pairs of) novelty socks.

TACTIL
Fall 2019
Design Systems
Tactil is a modular educational toy designed specifically for children with visual impairments /blindness. It is meant to be a play and learning alternative for kids between the ages of 1-5, learning the Latin Alphabet and Numeric, as well as the standard Braille Reading System. It also features the newly developed ELIA Frame system, a new alternative to traditional Braille. The Tactil module is a series of interlocking building blocks with each of the above systems as well as various textures for a wholly tactile experience. However the color allows for non-exclusive play, and these blocks are developmental tools for every child.
Tactil has three different sets: A Basic Alphabet, a Vowel Expansion, and a Consonant Expansion. This allows for the parent to extend the sets as the child's learning and understanding of language progresses. The modules are made of food-grade silicone and are safe for kids of all ages.
