‘my space’ by liya mairson
liya mairson a recent graduate from shenkar institute for engineering and design has sent in images of her project ‘my space’. the cardboard folding play area is designed for children aged 3-6 based around a pop-up technique.
‘my space’ has been developed specifically for small apartments which lack the space for a play room. when closed it uses minimal space and can be stored behind a door or under a single bed.

GRAN BELLA!!

I would buy it.
how long will it last?? my nephew would break it in about 5 minutes unles it is super strong cardboard
This is great, love cardboard structures, any user testing? How does children spilling juice suit it?
me encanta!
I have to agree with “III” and “Hermione ” any parent would or rather should know what kids are capable of, like going berserk. 🙂
Love the “design” through an artistic point of view but if you want to think like an Industrial designer or Architect you should do some user testing.
a copy of “villa julia” by Magis….
i dont think so, its far more versatile than villa julia you can create another house daily. i really love the idea and the design!
would love it even more if it were made from recycled materials and soy inks! That way if and when the kids “tear the house down”
I really like this. Reminds me of when I was a kid and we’d end up playing with the box a toy came in instead of the toy. I hope it’s durable cardboard. I wonder how much it would cost?
i want one when can i buy it?
This is what I would have loved to have as a kid.
the cardboard is durable and built to last, its totaly recyclable (using water based colors).
my zone is supposed to age with the child creating a more personal feeling.

beautyful, but i think the designer doesn´t have kids.
some parts look too vulnerable for 3 year old kids.
But i love the idea and construction.
Great idea, to take this from home on holiday or any other place will be comforting for younger children being in strange and new surroundings.
Great idea! ( :
great. Can i buy it?
awesome.. where can I buy it?
i would love to buy it too!!
Can’t believe Ikea haven’t already thought of this – but they must be a good bet for selling the concept?
this will last pretty good. yeah, some of the fold-out parts will get torn off, but a hot glue gun will soon fix that.
I built a simple cardboard play house for my son from flimsy boxes some Ikea furniture came in, and though it got broken it was easily fixed, and has lasted a year already. He’s 2 and a half now.
I figure the kids will be bored of this before it’s completely destroyed, and at least this can be recycled unlike 90% of the awful plastic cr*p out there for kids!
I was recommended this blog by my cousin. I am not sure whether this post is written by him as nobody else know such detailed about my problem.
You are incredible! Thanks!
