TwitterManolo Is Gonna Have Fun
Posted September 25th 2007 under Food, Furniture, Light, Products, Toys
Looking through the site of Hector Serrano from a previous post, I found this collaboration with Lola Llorca…
“Manolo Is Gonna Have Fun takes fun to the extreme with common objects. Objects that combine normal function and are amusing. Manolo´s products are inspired by toys and the actions of playing games. Manolo is gonna have fun introduces the idea of the enjoyable with the mundane”.
“How many times in our childhood did we hear those words when we toyed with our food! Well, now you can ignore those words with this use-and-toss plate, which can also be used as a Frisbee at picnics, or even at home.
That is, the object gives you the opportunity to play with your food at the same time you are eating, or, if you listen to your parents, afterwards”

“Who didn’t enjoy making soap bubbles as a kid? With this sponge, you can be a child all over again. Make bubbles while showering. A pleasurable pastime”
“This project is a hanger for house chairs. Simply connect any chair you have at home to the object, and now you can hang in the air, moving up and down. This item will convert your furniture into a kind of domestic amusement park”
“A coffee table that, while carrying out its regular function, allows one to jump up on top to do exercises or simply to have fun while eliminating daily stress. Objects are pushed to one side, and one jumps around as though on a trampoline”
“A lamp that you can play with as though it were a large beach ball, kicking and shooting it while it lights up the room. Feel like Rivaldo in your own home”
