DIY versions An Artisan Designer Toy
The creative challenge and the pleasure of working on a DIY of any platform is immense. We can say that we’ve really enjoyed more working on Syk customs than during their production process. It’s feeling the complete freedom of doing whatever you want! Therefore Zuby McField, Hunterbit and Pepper won’t be less. We introduce the An Artisan […]

It was a pleasure to be invited in this Days, and more, to be exposing more than one hour our project and exchanging views with the audience. Thank you for coming! […]
Pepper logo
The focus in Pepper is in his twisted tongue. It is the point from which triggers his anger. So from the beginning we knew that the tongue should be an important part of his brand. El centro de atención en Pepper se encuentra en su retorcida lengua. Es el punto desde el que se desencadena […]
Hunterbit logo
Hunterbit logo has a warrior sediment. Hunterbit is a dam in the animal kingdom that decided to lead their life to a different level than nature had intended for him. For this it was necessary to give the logo a certain forcefulness, security and energy.
Zuby McField logo
The logo that represents this Toy begins taking shape while bearing in mind that Zuby is a personified monster. He has a normal life, he has a job, he runs, DIY, etc. Even has a name: Zuby McField. This personification requires a handwriting logo, like it was his own letter. After working in some lines […]
Third Toy prototype: Pepper
Pepper is a strange character. His essence is pepper. There are no blood in his veins, he has a pepper saturated solution. Pepper reacts whenever someone uses pepper in their cooking practices. Black, white or green, it doesn’t matter! It generates an imbalance in his vital solution and turns it into a irritable creature, […]
Erik Lee interview
The interviews with our collaborators finished with Erik Lee, the author of TURU. From La Latina neighborhood with Pipo&Astutto to Las Letras neighborhood. There, in a little and bright attic, we talked to Erik. We shared common sensations and realized that there is more people than we believed, wishing to create . After the […]
Pipo&Astutto interview
On April 25th we were in Madrid. We interviewed to Pipo&Astutto in the La Latina neighborhood. We wanted to know these guys. After having a coffee near to a beautiful fridge, we started talking about the story behind Supergordo and his making off. All about in the magic atmosphere of a atelier. Surrounded by a typographic […]
Second Toy prototype: Hunterbit
Hunterbit was a rabbit jaded of living like a prey. Tired of hidding and bored of eating vegetables. He needed a change in his life. He needed to let out this wild side that everyone has. One day he waked up with enough courage to put a paw outside of the limits imposed by […]
Emilio García interview
We were with Emilio García on April 24th. We arrived early in the morning and we were all day talking with him. Our first impression was very friendly. He went down the street to meet us and took out his car from the garage to park ours. Shortly we were starting with the interview. […]
VuitBits interview

HX Studio interview
On Saturday April 20th we left early in Valencia, at 6 am. We arrived at about 9:30 to Arenys de Munt. Jesper waiting there for us to do the interview. More than an interview with a interviewer and a interviewed, we were looking for a talk between lovers of toys. We liked the result and this is […]
First Toy prototype: Zuby McField
Zuby was a normal monster, like other ones. He has an ordinary life. He had a job, he went running no so far than two blocks, he used to do DIY on sundays… Just a normal monster. Until one day, while a new neighbor was moving to the neighborhood, saw himself in a mirror […]
Sketches: Between red and black
We see this phase in red and black, it is the balance between emotion and reason. First, the red prevails. Running away from limits, you want everything flowing without control, no concerns. You just want to create, though it has no sense. You want to feel free, without justification, just drawing to pull out […]
Work in progress
Filming with phones
The nature of this project allows us to record with mobile devices. The purpose of this documentary is to encourage people making toys by their own, with their hands and low budgets. This is the reason why we’re filming with phones and tablets, because everyone have it and offer an acceptable quality.
Do more, think less
To start something, you have to Start. It is clear, but often is the first problem: Overcoming the fear of the blank page. You stand in front of the paper and freezes against Nothingness. A great option is to do more and think less. Looking for a place you feel right and starting, let flow the […]
What is special about this documentary?
This question could have a lot of answers, it depends who were you asking about. From our point of view we’ll highlight the uncertainty created by producing a documentary about something that does not exist yet. It sounds ridiculous when you say “We’re going to produce a documentary about something what doesn’t exist”. A logical order […]
Three different experiences with the same goal
An Artisan Designer Toy is going to be an enriching documentary. From a pragmatic point of view, because you’ll find three different experiences to achieve the same aim. This ensures the public to see three ways to produce their Designer Toy: You’ll be able to follow any of the three processes, you’ll be able to mix the […]
