THE concept

During a 4-day hackathon, our multidisciplinary team imagined a completely original hybrid product. The idea: combine two radically opposite objects to create a surprising and memorable chimera. After exploring several quirky ideas, we decided to merge the comforting softness of a baby pacifier with the formidable power of a medieval flail. The result: the spiked pacifier, a symbol of a reimagined Middle Ages where newborns grow into brave knights.

Storytelling

Inspired by Montessori education, we invented its inverted, tongue-in-cheek version: medieval Montessori. On our website, a humorous tone immerses visitors in a world where every baby is trained from birth in the art of chivalry. The storytelling plays with medieval tropes, exaggerating them to reinforce the absurdity of the concept.

ART Direction

Our art direction blends medieval imagery with contemporary digital aesthetics. We chose a gothic-inspired typeface reinterpreted in pixels, creating a bridge between history and the digital realm. The visuals oscillate between reimagined illuminated manuscripts and modern graphic codes, enhancing the anachronistic and humorous nature of the project.
