Reader Submitted: A Cardboard Crib Designed to Support Our Babies’ Tendencies to Outgrow Products Immediately

In the life of a baby, the first stages are very short indeed. Normally clothes get outgrown almost right away, shoes for crawling still look brand new when you already have to change them for the next step up, and bottles and pacifiers generally only last 3 to 6 months. This is actually the case with pretty much all objects that surround our babies in their everyday lives, including toys.

This is the context from which Eco-Lecho was born, created and manufactured by industrial designer Fernando Palma Fanjul in collaboration with be.mammals, a company that creates products for babies. Both are located in Concepción city in the south of Chile.
