Jump Back Into the World of Play With Innocent + Deku Blocks

Jump Back Into the World of Play With Innocent + Deku Blocks

Blocks are an integral toy in most of our childhoods, but who said we have to stop experimenting and creating with them once we’re grown? Deco Atelier gives us permission to keep using our imaginations with their Innocent and Deku blocks. Differing in shapes and colors, both collections invite us to go back to making satisfying stacks and nonsensical forms. Deco Atelier also shows how you can group blocks together using colorful masking tape to take your designs to the next level. Play is worth our time and efforts, in this case giving us the opportunity to flex our creative intuition and experiment with the laws of physics with no end goal in mind. If we’re lucky, the results might lead to something bigger, such as a product. But no pressure, we’re just here for the pure joy of the blocks!
