Despite being firmly grounded in the science of play, the design process was as playful as the products themselves. Each designer was asked to start in the everyday activity where they get lost in the moment and simply have fun – and to create items that make people smile. “To me, playfulness is a way of looking at life that boosts creativity and makes me believe that everything is possible. I won’t ever allow my inner child to grow up”, says Marta Krupinska, one of the designers behind the collection.

Story
Let your home come out and play
What happens when a bunch of designers come together for a deep dive into the world of play and playfulness? First of all, they have a lot of fun. Secondly, they create a collection of fabulously furry chair covers, loudspeaker mice, toothy storage pouffes, and much more – made to spark more play, every day, across the home.
"More and more parents recognise the importance of play for their children’s happiness and wellbeing – and want to play more with their kids. GREJSIMOJS collection is based on those insights”, says development leader Karin Blindh Pedersen.
Mission: Make people smile
3, 116, or anywhere in between? Perfect!

Combining fun and function, they make it easier to get the play going, whether you go all in or prefer hiding the playfulness in plain sight. And not only do they inspire to play across the whole home – they inspire everyone to unleash their playfulness. So are you 3, 116 or anywhere in between? GREJSIMOJS is for you.
Designer thoughts
Designer thoughts
“When I was a child, I recall how tidying up sometimes took as long as playtime. I wanted to change this, since every minute of play is valuable. GREJSIMOJS mat/storage box can be folded out flat and serves as a perfect surface to play on. Afterwards, it can be quickly folded together and converted into a storage box, so everything quickly finds a home as the floor space is cleared. The mat can also become a creative toy in itself – by folding it into a house for example."
