The brief

A partnership in brain research gave this giveaway its starting point. Artinis wanted a small construction kit for its conference audience, with OHBM in France named in the brief. The model needed to express the connection between Artinis and NIRx while remaining suitable for a wider customer giveaway. We developed that idea around a head wearing an fNIRS cap.

The cap carries the color combinations associated with both brands. We used original LEGO® elements to turn the sensors and head into a compact build, with a separate equipment module completing the scene. The friendly expression makes a specialist subject approachable, while the cap keeps the connection to neuroimaging clear. Joint branding gives the finished model a shared identity.

We supplied printed packaging and an instruction booklet to carry the concept through the whole kit. The project continued into a further production run, giving the design a life beyond its first conference brief. It is a way for a scientific partnership to become something customers can assemble and keep on their desks.
