Description
Milo is a toy dog robot inspired by Japanese Shinto Kumi-ki puzzles - designed by David Weeks for Areaware.

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.

Cubebot is a toy in the form of a cube that can be folded to represent a robot figure. It is made of wood and has flexible arms and legs that allow it to assume different poses. Cubebot is a classic toy that stimulates children's imagination and creativity and makes them feel like they own a real robot. It's also a great way to get kids to explore mechanics and robotics and develop their problem-solving skills.
This is the small size of Areaware's Milo Cubebot available in various colored versions and also in a smaller Micro version.
 
Milos' powerful hardwood frame can hold many poses, and his elastic-band muscles and durable wood limbs make him impervious to breakage. When it’s time for him to rest, he folds into a perfect cube.

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.
