Imagination Station - Research & Concepts

This project is sponsored by Little Tikes and the theme was to design an “imagination station” toy set that supports open-ended, creative play through a modular and or adaptable system. This project focuses on creating a simple, durable solution where children can build, explore, and invent their own experiences. Emphasizing flexibility and intuitive interaction, the design goal is to encourage storytelling, hands-on engagement, and long-term play value.
