The 'My Space' pop-up playhouse is a folding cardboard play area designed by Liya Mairson for use by children aged 3-6.
The playhouse makes use of the pop-up technique used in pop-up books. In fact, when the pop-up playhouse is folded down, it looks like a giant-sized book with a carrying handle. My Space serves as a context within which children can use their own toys and props to augment their imaginary worlds.Photo Credits: Designboom
