The Makedo Design Journal encourages young makers to plan, sketch and reflect on their ideas with alternating 2D and 3D grids. A creative companion that builds design thinking skills and captures their cardboard construction journey.

Inspire creativity, planning and reflection with their first Makedo design journal.

Every great invention starts with a sketch. From tentative first steps to grand plans, this design journal will be there with makers throughout their creative journey.

The process of turning an idea into a drawing and a drawing into (cardboard) reality will help makers dream bigger than ever before.

Show them how engineers, architects and designers of all kinds visualise their creations so they can begin to do the same with Makedo. Alternating 2D and 3D grid guidelines to help them learn to visualise their plans and then take them to the third dimension. Level up design thinking skills to draw practical, constructible sketches.

By the time their design journal is full, they’ll have a record of their growing skills and ambition, which they can look back on to see just how far they’ve come. Memories of creativity and play for you and your budding designers to cherish for years to come.
