Co - op Play
Project Overview
I designed, fabricated, and play-tested a reinterpretation of a popular board game. This game set borrows in its aesthetics, but emphasizes cooperation over competition.

Goals
In this project, I wanted to borrow from the aesthetics and form of an already existing commercial product and adapt it to a point where new ideas emerge from its reinterpretation. I wondered how a game that many know and love could change when its branding, materials, and instructions are altered.

Design Process
This project involved the design and fabrication of several individual elements; the contents of the Co-Op Play play set include; an instruction manual with documentation of three rounds of play testing, 48 circular resuable vinyl stickers, and an acrylic game spinner.


Reusable stickers vector cut from large sheets of adhesive viynl are utilized for more experimental game board layouts. Creative play is encouraged!


The spiral-bound instruction manual is fabricated with laser-cut acrylic covers, Risograph printed text and imagery, and vinyl sectioning tabs. I also fabricated the clamshell box which contains the play set and the game spinner with similar digital fabrication technologies.
