We’re proud to announce that Punctuate Design has won two prestigious Grand Prix du Design awards for Fabli, a playful and sustainable product designed to inspire creativity in children. This double recognition celebrates both Fabli’s innovative design and Punctuate’s expertise in creating impactful products that resonate internationally.
Fabli stood out at the 18th edition of the Grand Prix du Design, earning not one, but two distinctions:
These honors highlight Fabli’s innovative features, responsible material choices, and thoughtful design strategy. The juries recognized not just the aesthetics of the product but its strategic design thinking, user-centric development, and eco-responsible vision. All core pillars of Punctuate Design’s approach to industrial design.
Fabli was designed with a clear mission: to spark imagination, reduce screen time, and promote repair culture through thoughtful industrial design. It’s a repairable audio device for children and parents, offering a tactile and screen-free experience that encourages exploration and shared moments.
At the heart of Fabli’s design is its reparability. Parents and children can disassemble and reassemble the device together, learning how it works and how to take care of it over time. Instead of being a sealed, disposable object, Fabli becomes a tool for teaching kids to understand and fix their own devices, nurturing curiosity, confidence, and sustainable habits from an early age.
Made from recycled materials and designed for durability and longevity, Fabli aligns perfectly with Punctuate Design’s commitment to circular innovation.
For Fabli, these awards build trust and credibility in the marketplace, open doors to new audiences, and validate a forward-thinking product vision.
For Punctuate Design, this recognition reinforces our position as one of Canada’s leading industrial design studios, a team that blends creativity, technical expertise, and strategic thinking to deliver products that stand out internationally.
Good design doesn’t just look good, it creates real impact, shapes user behavior, and contributes to a more sustainable future!
This recognition wouldn’t have been possible without the collaboration of many talented people:
We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished together and excited for what comes next.
