The Domus objects are not what they seem to be at the first glance. Initially a toy to support and develop kids' creativity, it has become a design object without an obvious function. Well, it still serves as a fine gift for someone appreciating the unobtrusive aesthetics.
 
The roof colors refer to the different climates: northern copper roofs, southern white lime cupolas, continental toned-down housetops. The light shade of the maple wood and the clean sharp lines of the form make these objects look as essential as they can possibly be.
 
When designing for van Wright I have to always apply "the system thinking" – every product should not only be designed for an age, an activity or a function, but also should have another product to match, visually or conceptually. So the collection is going to be developed further. Toys included.
 
The Domus collection is handcrafted in Germany.
