We featured Rolobox here on KSF in October 2009, and today have an equally innovative new product that also employs the notions of making use of what otherwise would head to the recycle bin. Meet makedo – www.makedo.com.au -  an Aussie outfit with a global vision for imaginative and sustainable play.

“makedo is a connector system made up of three simple parts – a connector, a hinge and a construction tool – that enables materials including cardboard, plastic and fabric to easily join together to form new objects or structures. When you’re done playing, simply pull it apart to reuse over and over again.”

Sound good? It is! Already receiving accolades from the experts (Treehugger Best Industrial Design or Design Idea and a Red Dot Design Honourable Mention) makedo is a fantastic concept that is only limited by your imagination. I am in absolute awe of the creations that people have made with their makedo kits. View the video below to behold more marvels.

makedo kits are available to buy online from the makedo website, with prices from USD$25.00 (approximately AUD$30) including shipping for a limited time only.
