The project is about a private toy exhibition at home, a place to play with toys, but also a world of toys. In the Toy Adventure, I helped toy_wooo, a toys collector, to design an exclusive space for her and her toys in my residence in Milan.

toys_wooo’s favorite toys to collect are the Aliens from the film Toy Story, Minions and all different characters from Disney, so when I designed the little world for her toys, I also based on the personality and preferences of the toys. In this project, besides the collector, toys are also my customers.

The most attractive part of this project is that it is a space where humans and toys coexist. Each piece of furniture maintains the functions of human use, but at the same time, it has a different meaning and function in the toy world. And the way each piece of furniture is opened is also very intriguing.

In the end I designed a total of three different little worlds in three different kinds of furniture for the toys: the “Swimming Bed”, the “Underground Dessert Desk” and the “Racing Playland Sofa”.

展場設計｜個人作品

・

這是個在家中的私人玩具展，是一個玩玩具的場所，也是玩具的世界。

這個名為“TOY ADVENTURE”的作品，是我替玩具收藏家 toy_wooo，在我米蘭的住所中為她和她的玩具們設計的一個專屬空間。

Toys_wooo最喜歡收集的玩具是電影《玩具總動員》的三眼怪、《小小兵》以及各式各樣迪士尼角色，所以我在為她的玩具設計空間的時候，也是根據玩具角色們的個性和喜好來設計的。因此，除了收藏家，玩具們同時也是我的客戶。

這個作品最吸引人的地方是它是一個人和玩具共存的空間，傢俱們都保有人類可使用的功能，但同時在玩具世界中又有著不同的意義，而且每件傢俱的打開方式也很耐人尋味。

最終我以三種不同的傢俱設計了三個不同的小世界給玩具們：「游泳床」、「地下甜點桌」和「賽車遊樂場沙發」。
