KORA
Nachhaltiges, modulares, kreatives Spiel
KORA ist ein innovatives, modulares Spielsystem aus 100 % Kiefernholz, das sich in funktionale Möbel umwandeln lässt und dadurch "Spiel-Obsoleszenz" und Abfall vermeidet. Entwickelt für Kinder von 1 bis 8 Jahren fördert es durch sein reparierbares, langlebiges Design einen bewussten Konsum. Der Nachhaltigkeitswert liegt in der Verwendung von kohlenstoffspeicherndem Kiefernholz und einem Kreislaufmodell, das dem Produkt ein "zweites Leben" schenkt.
