description

Babel Kit is our understanding of the myth of the never ending Tower, made out of cardboard.

This hut made for kids is a real story telling device. The story of the origin of the world inspired multiple versions based on the same model. Ours only has one door but seventy-seven different windows ordered in steps that one can open and close at will. Everyone is invited to play inside and around the structure.

The three steps for the installation process were as follow: shape the four parts of the cardboard by folding the big cardboard strips; open the pre-cut openings and finally assemble the pieces into slots going from the bigger ones to the smaller ones.
