Bolt Buddies

Structural design, package design, line-look branding, 3D rendering, and animation at Educational Insights for our new line of building toys: Design & Drill Bolt Buddies. I came up with the concept for the reversible packaging after noticing parents on social media after the holidays unhappy with wasteful toy packaging. I wanted the instruction guide to be a fascinating keepsake for the child, so I turned it into a fold-out poster. Bolt Buddies are currently for sale at Amazon, Walmart, and Target.
Design featured in Fast Company, The Dieline, and Packaging Digest.
