It’s hard (and sad) to imagine a world without LEGO, but that was the case until “only” 80 years ago!
Have you ever wondered how LEGO happened? The idea, the bricks, the name?
Well, ladies and gentlemen, this cartoon tells you the story. Which is, of course, totally awesome.
So happy 80th birthday to LEGO, and let’s get building!
“Buz-e-Chini,” (The Goat) is a 3D animated movie by Abbas Ali, a graphic designer and cartoon lover from Afghanistan who found refuge in Pakistan when the Taliban took over his country. He started working on the movie while away, and after the end of the Taliban regime went back to Afghanistan and finished the project.
You know what makes us really happy (and probably does you too)? Beautiful toy stores.
Even better: toy stores full of innovative design and technology, like JouJou Toy Store, in Utah, where the rebranding exercise lead by Struck went much beyond the typical revamping. The agency transformed the shop into an entertainment destination itself, with an environment full of amazing creations that seem to have come directly from a child’s imagination.
The shop is full of things like colorful flying machines, candy towers…

To celebrate incoming spring, Efim Graboy and Daria Turetski created this very cute video showing one day in Kiev. Enjoy it.
Inventing stories can be as beautiful as listening to them. Especially when you can invent them with an animator like Alon Askaorv. We love trying to give answers to Kartovnik’s questions, and suggesting Alon how to continue his cartoons.
