The Danish company Kompan, under new ownership, opened the way for the expansion of their product range to include non-wood products. Prior to this all of their products were wood-based. The basic modules for the Galaxy line were created, but didn't offer a broad enough spectrum of play opportunities to effectively penetrate the market. A new, ambitious project was launched to expand the line, and extend its design language. These are the units that I was responsible for, as a member of a highly integrated and cooperative international deign team. In the end, it was launched on schedule, and quickly became a major seller fo rKompan. We were also awarded two prestigous awards for this project, the 1999 Danish Design Prize, and the UK's Independent Living Award in 2002.
