Design
Nowadays it is pretty hard to find toys that leave room for the child's’ imagination, and still do look good. The Duotone cars are inspired by cars of the past but do have that contemporary look where Floris is famous for.
The collection is very characteristic, and can be extended with several new vehicles in the near future. The cars come in a high end cardboard giftbox.

Ikonic Toys
The Dutch toy brand Ikonic Toys was founded in 2015 by designer Maurice Doorduyn. The wooden toys are sold in The Netherlands and abroad, from The Conran Shop Japan to the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles. The brand is well known by their quality and details, and because of the very particular Dutch themes. A collaboration with Hollands most famous toy designer Floris Hovers was very obvious, and in 2016 a new collection was born. Ikonic Toys hopes to to sell the new collection in design and museum shops all over the world.
