‘Building’ Blocks by Christopher Jarratt
by Jennifer Chait, 10/01/09
Designer Christopher Jarratt’s multicolored, architecturally minded, literal Building Blocks, are another innovative, eco-friendly toy design recently unveiled at the Doing it for the Kids design exhibition. These blocks are perfect for the child who wants to get a head start on planning his/her own small, sustainable city. Christopher Jarratt’s new Building Blocks are hand-cut from FSC & PEFC registered pine and hand screen-printed with non-toxic acrylic inks in Jarratt’s Cornish studio. Jarratt will soon be adding people, animals, bikes and cars to his collection, so kids can populate their small wooden worlds. Blocks measure 195mm x 94mm x 37mm to 111mm x 56mm x 56mm with various sizes in-between.
Building Blocks – £12 each or £80 for the full set – available directly from Jarratt’s workshop. To purchase contact Jarratt at contact@christopherjarratt.com.
