Good design makes a product useful. The Nest is a wheelbarrow/chair designed for children in their pre-school phase. It not only exercises their motor skills, it also gives them something interesting to interact with. The fact that it is a 2-in-1 product not only means a smaller carbon footprint, it also helps by giving kids a wonderful lesson in design! Additionally, the nest makes minimal use of resources by being machined entirely out of a 4′ X 4′ plywood sheet.
