Disney Pins

Pratt student work

For a prototyping class, we were challenged to reimagine a toy box in a sustainable way. Disney Pins are currently packaged in plastic with small plastic bags holding the pins, or in plastic and cardboard. This design creates an exciting opening experience for customers, but pairs the packaging down to a simple mono-material box.

Disney pin trading is a popular hobby and activity at Disney parks and resorts where guests collect and trade small collectible pins featuring Disney characters, movies, attractions, and special events.
