BLOOEY HOBBEL
- BLOOEY HOBBEL
by Remko Verhaagen and Stephen Boom
When toddlers arrive any carefully designed interior turns into a scrapheap of toys and kids stuff...
And since cleaning up isn’t exactly what kids love to do most, in many cases it remains a mess for the next 16 years or so.
We wondered what would happen if we could make a kind of ‘design’ object that is equally good looking and a lot of fun to play with!

The first mock-up...
It was really hard to find the right bending tool for our (spline curved) tubes. Somehow it was a lot easier to find a ‘test pilot’.
