Designer Munnies Raise Cash for Charity
For its holiday benefit, DAHRA (Designers Against Human Rights Abuses) asked 20 of the world’s top graphic and product designers and 10 students to customize do-it-yourself Munny dolls. The signed Munnies will be auctioned at Play.Create, a party presented by DAHRA and Glug London to aid Barnardo’s, the UK-based children’s charity.
Paula Scher gave her Munny a stylish ‘do of almost 1,000 red map pins. “I took out my frustration by sticking the doll with pins,” she says.
Other designers who decorated dolls for the event include Andy Altmann of Why Not Associates, Joe Shouldice of Sagmeister Inc. and Michael C. Place of Build.
The auction and party takes place on Tuesday, 15 December at the Book Club in London. Tickets are on sale now; details here.
