My Space by Liya Mairson

Thanks to Liya Mairson, designer and a graduate of Israel’s Shenkar College for Engineering and Design, who recently shared  images of her latest product.

My Space takes you back to your early childhood entertainment consisting of blanket forts. However, the realities of today’s tight apartment living in urban areas doesn’t afford kids the luxury of space. Designer Liya Mairson responded by designing My Space – a clever pop-up playroom for kids aged three up to the young-at-hearts. As a cardboard flat pack which can be stored  behind doors or under a bed, My Space unfolds into a playroom equipped with pop-up shelves and cutout windows. The folding mechanism of the walls allows kids to operate on their fantasies by creating spaces around the play area.

My space is fully recyclable.

Jane, it is still at a conceptual stage but it could be available for purchase in the future.

This is fun! I would like to purchase for my kids… Can we get on a mailing list for info on future purchase possibilities?
