MILO CUBEBOT DOG - Natural - Small Milo is a toy dog robot inspired by Japanese Shinto Kumi-ki puzzles. Just like Cubebot, Milo can be folded into dozens of poses. When it’s time for a nap, Milo folds back into a perfect cube. Materials: Beech wood, water-based paint, elastic cord, silk screen paint. Dimensions: Small, 2.3 x 2.3 x 2.3 in a cube Meet the Designer: David Weeks David Weeks was born in Madison, Wisconsin, raised in Athens, Georgia, and educated in Providence, where he received his BFA in painting from the Rhode Island School of Design. Weeks founded his namesake studio in DUMBO in 1996 as an umbrella for his diverse interests, ranging from metal fabrication techniques to contemporary toy culture. Brooklyn’s unique amalgam of the industrial and the artisanal informed Weeks’ sensibility, and his work in turn helped define the independent design movement that took root there: one that championed the maker and whetted contemporary styling and old-school craftsmanship.
