BA Major Design Semester
2021/22 SS Bodies are different, they are unique, they are beautiful. But there was always and still is an insecurity for people because of norms. DIDOS shows and celebrates diversity. It is a modular toy for children. The different parts can be easily combined with magnets, so children can explore the variety of bodies in a playful way. There is so much to explore: skin color, body shapes, gender differences, scars, tatoos, body hair, expressions.
A project made in the course
Intorno al Corpo
During the present semester we want to explore the world of products moving from the functional and sensorial relationship we have with them, especially focusing on that category of objects that live in close relation with our body and in symbiosis with us, at the same time stabilizing and transforming our bodies.
