| description | The article addresses the issue of children’s furniture in Colombia. It points out the design deficiencies found in most products currently offered in the market (usefulness for just one or two functions at the greatest, fast obsolescence and high environmental impact), in comparison with those designed in Europe and North America: versatile, multifunctional, built with recycled materials, simple yet efficient, among others. It traces a typical profile of direct and indirect users (children and parents/tutors, respectively), and defines the usual activity zones for kids between 3 to 9 years of age in order to identify the specific functions demanded on their furniture and to determine design strategies and guidelines. Finally, it presents Magoo Modular System, its product concept, its differential value, its design process and its materials. It concludes that multi-functionality and flexibility, versatility and transformation capability are all essential when designing children’s furniture. |

El artículo aborda el tema del mobiliario infantil en Colombia. Señala las deficiencias de diseño de la mayor parte de los productos que se ofrecen en el mercado actual (cubrimiento de una o dos funciones a lo sumo, rápida obsolescencia e impacto ambiental), haciendo un contraste con muebles para niños diseñados en Europa y Norte América, los cuales se caracterizan por su versatilidad, multifuncionalidad, uso de materiales reciclables y minimalismo, entre otras cosas. Se esboza un perfil de los usuarios directos (los niños), y los usuarios indirectos (los padres o tutores), y además, se definen las zonas de actividad de los niños entre 3 y 9 años de edad, a partir de lo cual se identifican las funciones del mobiliario infantil, o los lineamientos para el diseño. Por último, se presenta el sistema modular Magoo, lo que incluye: el concepto del producto, su valor diferencial, el proceso de diseño y sus materiales. Se concluye que multifuncionalidad y flexibilidad, versatilidad y capacidad de transformación, son palabras clave a la hora de diseñar muebles para niños.
