The Great Indoors Puzzle Co is a Toronto-based company that offers jigsaw puzzles designed by local artists. Founded by Abigail Conners, the puzzles aim to transport users into the design through immersive visual and sound experiences.
The artist-designed puzzles are accompanied by curated Spotify playlists. Each artist created a playlist that amplifies their designs to help users fully immerse themselves in the puzzle-solving experience. Users can access the playlists through a QR code on the inside of the box. The packaging design was a priority to the founder. The box is fully recyclable and designed to be "like a coffee-table book, or something that would live on your bookshelf," with the added gamified QR component.
