A team of designers approached the problem from a historic perspective. The Mid-Century Modernism movement was chosen because in a simple way, it conveys design as product, practice, and creative synthesis. For this reason, the team chose to put 40s-60s design in front of the eyes of a young audience. While playing with their toysets, young girls will have come into contact with architecture, furniture artifacts, illustration, fashion design, music, and abstract ideas like modular play. The first piece in the set is a dreamhouse with interchangable slide-in walls, Mid-Mod furnishings, and a button installed that plays historic music. Included with this is a storybook about design, two dolls that match the characters in the story, and an instructions manual. A second collectible featuring Chelsea as a designer is sold separately.
