Balance Forest

Educational Toy




Designer : Jumin Chen
Aiming to increase awareness of energy conservation and carbon footprint,  Balance Forest is an educational toy that can also develop concentration, motor skills, and hand-eye coordination as well.

Balance Forest challenges players to stack bricks on a platform which has a semicircular under it. Each brick represents a food category, numbered according to its carbon footprint ranking offer by UN and EPA's data.  And the bricks' shape, size and weight are also related to the ranking. For example, Red Meat, the toy item No.11 has the biggest amount of carbon footprint. Therefore, it consists of 11 blocks, having the heaviest weight and a crooked shape, which makes it uneasy to stack.
