Marc Castellò è designer di giochi per bambini e ama l’architettura ed è così che ha dato vita a Mitoi, brand spagnolo che ha appena lanciato 2 collezioni di costruzioni in legno per bambini pensate per ricreare palazzi e icone dell’architettura mondiale: la Torre Eiffel a Parigi, l’Elizabeth Tower (Big Ben) di londra, l’Empire State Building di New York e una Pagoda.
I saw many construction toys for children, but none with specific form, only simple wooden blocks without meaning.
For this reason I wanted to give meaning to the construction toy – a real building that is an an exemplary building in Barcelona or world architecture.
I have simplified the form to adapt it to the world of the toy. I would like children to learn the relation between colours and form and to learn something about their urban landscape and the buildings closest to them.
