Hasta La Ideas

Dina Delgado is a psychotherapist-turned-designer orignally from Mexico City. After years of listening to people (both professionally and on the streets) she came to the conclusion that most adults were in dire need of the open-minded wonder they had as kids. It was her belief that this attitude was taken away by “the man” and it was up to her and others like her to get it back. In 1975 she started an “idea studio” with her lifelong partner Joseph Ledon called Nov Future.

The first line of products rolled out by Nov Future was called Bounce Objects. The goal was to make a series of bouncy balls for adults infused with special ingredients and made in special places. Dina explained it like this: “I want people to bounce a ball for a reason, knowing that someone, somewhere didn’t hold back in the crafting of the ball. Each one bounces a different way and it’s up to the individual to learn to control it and master it. Once mastered the bounce object will be a powerful ally.”

The following is a quick breakdown of the bounce objects above:
