Pumice stones and sponges are items that are commonly found in the bathroom, but De Intuïtiefabriek transforms them into the foundations of its playful bathtub toys for kits.
The WATERSCAPE collection is made up of shapely building blocks that will float when played with in the tub. This includes sets of stairs, sloped roofs and bridges that assist kids in creating dream cities of their imaginations. Like other architecture-inspired building blocks that are used during play outside of the bathtub, these ones leave no mess behind and are easy to collect after bathtime is over.
The inventive bathtub toys were inspired by Cotto’s Pætchwork collection and were specifically designed for the Cotto Another Perspective exhibition that was on display at this year's Salone del Mobile.
