Description:
I was the 3D designer on this foldable play set. It was enjoyable to sculpt the adorable animal characters, each with a distinct silhouette and comfy home space. Squeezing all the various play zones into this tiny world was also a fun challenge. Maximizing fun and replayability was a primary concern as I worked to perfect the action features: water slide, flower swing, and seashell seesaw.
This product was a popular success in it's low price tier and it led to development of subsequent carry case product.
