Medium Melon Decorative Bumble
Product Details
Most smiles start with another smile. The classic hoptimist is the epitome of smiles, optimism and good humor, spreading joy wherever he appears with his clear, cheerful colors and round, harmonious expression. with a strong belief in the power of smiles, gustav ehrenreich created his cheerful hoptimist movement in the late 1960s. The goal was to create a character that would serve as an everlasting reminder to stay positive and optimistic. Although the 1960s are often referred to as “the happy 60s,” the decade was marked by unrest. Ehrenreich's design was therefore a welcome source of joy in an otherwise rather turbulent time. Bimble and bumble represent the very first hoptimists from the designer's hand: a girl dressed for school with smiling eyes and an attentive boy with a splint on his head. The happy hoptimists are now a part of danish design history and bring joy all over the world. Material: ABS/steel. Color: melon. Design: bumble. Product: hoptimist. Designers: hoptimist - plastic.
