Situation: In a long-term partnership, we've collaborated with OXO to design over 20 products that tackle even the tiniest annoyances, because we know that it's the little things that make the biggest difference. OXO TOT, known for its innovative child care products, aimed to expand its range with a focus on toilet training and on-the-go solutions.

Challenge: We set out to address the unique challenges parents face when traveling or outside the home with little ones.

Solution: We conducted extensive research to develop smart solutions for the cutest consumers. Initially hesitant in the presence of onlookers, our kid-testers were won over with silly faces and potty language, allowing us to better observe their needs. This approach informed the development of portable, easy-to-use, and kid-approved products introduced over a multi-year rollout. The suite features a common design language, elevated CMF (Color, Material, Finish), and enhanced usability.

Erica has been an incredibly valuable partner to our team. Her keen sense of our brand and deep understanding of our nuanced business objectives for each project yielded key insights that were so easy to act on.
