Production Technology: Minia Collection requires E0 quality products, which are powder coated on MDF panels. Powder coating offers a range of benefits over traditional liquid painting methods. There are some of the key advantages:

Durability: Powder coating creates a tough, hardwearing finish that is resistant to chipping, scratching, fading, and corrosion.

Environmental friendliness: Powder coating uses a dry application process, eliminating the need for harmful solvents used in traditional paints.

Wide variety of colors and finishes: Powder coatings come in a vast array of colors, allowing for a high degree of customization. This makes it suitable for both aesthetic and functional purposes in our design.

Cost-effectiveness: While the initial setup cost for powder coating may be higher than traditional painting, the material waste is minimal, and the durability of the finish translates to lower long-term maintenance costs.

Efficiency: The application process of powder coating is efficient, with minimal overspray and a single coat often being sufficient. This translates to faster production times and lower labor costs.
Design Challenge: Help children develop their sense of independence and exploration in a safe room environment by creating with E0 certified healthy materials and does not contain any carcinogenic substances.
Research: Firstly, considering the child's psychology, while choosing a color scheme for a child's room, it is important to consider the impact of colors on child development. Some colors are known to help children fall asleep, while others are known to attract children's attention. Accordingly in our design, we create a balance by choosing grey tones and yellow as a pop color.
Inspiration: Inspired by the Montessori philosophy, The Minia Set is designed to guide little explorers on their path to independence. Our inspiration comes from the child's growth, sense of curiosity and exploration on their own journey. Each piece is designed for children to discover and utilize within their rooms, encouraging self-reliance. To provide a safe and fun environment that stimulates imagination and encourages learning through play.
Project Duration: Project duration is 5 months. It started in September 2023, finished in January 2024.
