Monkey Terrarium Vase

While isolating myself I came up with this idea in search for something to keep myself busy with. This is my first ‘freehand’ toy - no measurements, just pencil, color paper and pencils. It’s a monkey teasing a meat-eating plant somewhere in the jungle.

The set was created for Pan Tu Nie Stal and was supposed to present the spirit of the housing estate on a cold, winter day. The details were unspecified and I was free to decide. It was enough for me to look through the window to know what to draw. Good morning, inspiration! I've been expecting you.

11 Postcards

These are my paper folding toys. The majority of them (except for no 1 and 6) have been designed as postcards which you can buy and fold, or send to somebody. If you have already purchased one of the toys and have some difficulties in folding them, you can download the instruction which will help you succeed. If you would like to buy any of the toys, you can find the addresses of shops which have the assortment of those at the bottom of the site. 

There are going to be more addresses added to that list soon, so keep your ear to the ground. You'd better hurry, the toys have been released in a limited edition!


Pan Tu Nie Stal asked me to design a stick man for the children’s workshops that they organized. During the workshops, children along with their parents glued the plain version of the stick man together, painted it and stuck some stickers, designed by Maciek Blazniak, onto it. Reportedly, it was so cool! 

To show their gratitude, PTNS offered me to print some new color. I was happy to do so and that's how Franek, the stick man, came into being.

The toys were designed in a way that a child can fold it, supervised by the parent. Each toy has the extra toy of its own and is equipped with a secret valve flap, hiding its heart.

A paper figurine of Robotata, designed to share it for free on my website as a fun project and a way to build presence when I was a freelance contractor. Print, fold, smile! The toy is perfect to be put on a shelf.
