The 'MezmoCoin' is an optical illusion toy that's designed for professionals who are looking for a way to keep their hands busy as they work, brainstorm or take breaks throughout the day. Designed by Kristoph Krisjans, the device features a compact coin-shaped aesthetic that is perfect for keeping in a pocket or placing on a desk. The unit can be spun to create an optical illusion that is satisfying enough to watch on its own or play with in-hand when taking a break to think about a project.
The 'MezmoCoin' can help to alleviate stress when working and also works with an accompanying stand to have the coin spin freely without interaction. The device speaks to the increased acceptance of play in the workplace as professionals recognize the benefits of taking frequent breaks and fidgeting with small toys to alleviate stress.
