the lettercubes playground equipment - our contribution to the world book capital

26.05.2010 - At the invitation of the ProstoRož society we added more content to one of the locations of the Fabula short story festival, one of the most important events of the World Book Capital. The location is on Breg, on the new promenade along the Ljubljanica river. Our contribution is a piece of playground equipment we named Lettercubes, which connects graphic creativity with writing, and through that with literature and our great love – typography. Mojca spent quite some time in her workshop designing and printing the hand prints on fabric.

In the first couple of days after spring rains, when the playground equipment could finally be installed, the children immediately adopted it, and are now busy constructing various towers, houses, benches, sentences, syllables and words.
