bird and fish



These beautifully sculptural bath toys were designed in 1969 by Patrick Rylands for Trendon toys and were part of his collection of work that won the Duke of Edinburgh's prize for Elegant Design in 1970 (now the Prince Philip Designers Prize).
"Bird and Fish are the first two products to be re-launched by Selegiochi toys under the MasterToys brand and are included in many permanent museum collections including the V&A Museum, London. 
The packaging is designed to be as clean and attractive as the toys with the only graphic feature being the wave which also shows that both Bird and Fish are specially weighted to float upright and above the water line in your bath."

ebay workplace


As part of the Operational Excellence Initiatives for eBay, Valerio Dewalt Train Associatescollaborated with eBay’s internal Workplace Resources Team to develop a series of pilot projects intended to establish a new corporate workplace standard. New modular furniture workstations increase flexibility and allow teams to easily reconfigure their spaces using a standard kit of parts. Carefully programmed collaborative venues throughout the space support private and project team work. Hotel stations, team project areas, private rooms, alcove chat areas, and storage solutions were revisited to ensure they comply with the new use of the space. The result is flexible working environments that enhance communication and collaboration.
