This is a funny image I created for the release of the new Vulto yoyo strings. I love this retro style: the cartoons, the colors, the humor.

It’s been almost one year since I started working at Smuzi with product and packaging design. I still have a lot of fun designing paper products and there are always great challenges coming up. Paper is one of the most versatile materials out there.

Nintendo broke many barriers with their latest consoles. It always makes us think “what’s next?”.
I created this model last year and completely forgot about it. Now that there is a hype over the upcoming 3DS I searched my files and decided to post my design. Let’s see if they can work hard enough to make a console with all these features!

The screen
This is where it all starts. This portable has a single flexible touch screen. It’s bright enough and it shows graphics in 3D, not to mention the mega resolution (what is going to be the resolution for small screens in 1 or 2 years?). And I mean 3D graphics that pop out of the screen, not “special 3D effects you can almost see without glasses”.
You can use the console in any angle or lay it flat. This changes a lot in terms of playability. The console can be used as a board game and played over a surface. You can use both hands to play. It’s also great for multiplayer games (of course there can’t be too many people touching it at the same time).

All the projects I’m directing now cannot be published yet, so I decided to throw some random stuff.
