Project Description
A series of collectible objects molded in the shape of a shattered vase. Each toy is composed of fragments that assemble into a single form. The series is released in three color variations, all sharing the same geometric details. Fragments of different colors can be mixed and matched to create personalized color schemes. Thus, one basic model serves as the foundation for multiple assembly variations. The project merges a collectible object with a construction set, where the appearance of the finished piece is dependent on the selection and combination of its parts.
Concept and Development Principles of the Series
Core Concept: One form—multiple possible color solutions.
The project is based on a vase model divided into fragments. When assembled, these fragments form the silhouette of a whole object. Each fragment can have its own color, and the combination of these parts determines the final appearance of the toy.
The series can be expanded through new color releases and limited combinations. The basic form remains unchanged, while variability is created by selecting and combining the fragments.

Visualization and Color Palette
The collection is presented in three distinct colors—cobalt, orange, and milky—which can be mixed to create contrasting combinations. The surface of each piece is matte, without additional ornamentation. Each base variation consists of fragments of a single color. These pieces can be combined to create new color palettes. Color becomes the primary variable element within the series while maintaining the unified form and structure of the vase.
Principle of Connection
The primary option involves assembling fragments. Once joined, they form a single, stable shape. In the future, it might be possible to develop interlocking joints using a «tenon-and-mortise» principle, allowing the parts to be rearranged and reassembled without glue.
