from hangers to birds and planes: aequo.design turns household items into wooden toys
Briefly

Jeu de Cintre is an innovative project by aequo.design that transforms a single wooden hanger into a collection of playful, minimalist toys. The project highlights the studio's commitment to merging industrial design with craft, focusing on overlooked materials. Each toy is crafted from just one mass-produced Spacéo hanger, allowing for simple assembly suitable for all ages. This initiative serves as both a creative outlet and a tool for education, with public workshops where visitors can make their own toys. The project will be featured at Maker Faire 2025 in Lille, France, showcasing the potential of everyday objects.
