dc.description.abstractUsing modern methodologies in the sectors and subareas of industrial design, where they currently find only marginal application, brings a potential for interrelating technology, the arts, and fine arts. To illustrate this, we present model procedures and options for designing a versatile storage cube that integrates magnetic structural components facilitating easy and quick assembly. In addition to being an item of real furniture, portable and readily convertible into a table or soft stool, the cube supports children’s creative games and helps to develop their overall skills in the present-day household and in pre-primary and primary education. The basic material rests in birch plywood, and the joint edges between the individual walls are covered with smooth plastic guards manufactured via additive 3D printing from corn fodder-based filament. Thus, an interesting structural detail, namely, plastic edges, is generated, reinforcing the entire product. The walls comprise decorative, multicolor, polyurethane foam-based elements that can be removed and reinserted. Regarding the manufacturing technology, CNC machining and laser shaping are widely employed on the main parts, and the plastic edges are 3D-printed. In terms of the original idea, the product responds to customer requirements within a specific design project. The robustness and stability tests have proved that the cubes fully satisfy the relevant standards.en
