Aconà Biconbì by Bruno Munari
Arts and Crafts, Books for 8-12y, Bruno Munari, School-Ager Gifts, Toys for 6y+ Originally conceived as a work of sculpture issued from Munari’s researches on the subject of multiples, Aconà Biconbì was manufactured as a “game” for the first time in 1961 by Danese. Aconà Biconbì is available in 4 different colours (red, blue, white and green). Its modules are made of circular disks with a hole in the middle, laterally folded so that they can be freely joined together. The result is a complex three-dimensional structure, that changes into unlimited combinations depending on the number of the modules and their disposition. Source of inspiration for many designers and artists worldwide, Aconà Biconbì has often been reinvented and “moulded” in several ways and with different materials.
Following the direction outlined in Corraini by Il gioco dell’amore e del caso by Paul Cox and Scatola di architettura MC N.1 and Poliscopio by Bruno Munari, Aconà Biconbì continues to discover the domain of artists’ objects and games, in order to develop a brand-new collection.

Ombra
Books for 4-8y, Books for 5-8y, Books for 8-12y With a little help of imagination, a dark and desert cellar can become a thick and knotty jungle, full of curious plants and animals, sometimes quarrelsome but always ready to be involved in new fairy adventures. Suzy Lee’s illustrations – rendered in charcoal, pencil, watercolour, spray paint (lacquer) and digitally manipulated – accompany the reader in a new fresh visual experience, naturally simple and with an ironic and suspended end...
In Ombra the tangible elements of the book as an object become part of the tale in itself: the central binding is not a mere constructive element of the book, but also the imaginary borderline between reality and phantasy. Suzy Lee deals with the horizontal binding: a new personal boundary between reality and imagination.

The Wanderer
Books for 4-8y, Books for 5-8y, Books for 8-12y Zoey Kim is a freelance illustrator and graphic designer from South Korea. Her love for children’s picture books influenced her in many ways, both as a child and as an adult.
Her drawings tell stories of various emotions and sometimes completely random thoughts that cross her mind. These thoughts are drawn and divided into different frames within the artwork giving viewers a chance to come up with their own imaginative stories; just like reading a children’s picture book.
She loves drawing subjects with blurred and fuzzy textures, giving her work a soft and warm feeling.
