Description

Articul's Roo is a light, nimble rocking horse by Latvian designer Aldis Circenis – a real delight in any child's room. Its simple shape might suggest a horse, but equally a dog, a cat or even a sheep; with this little creature, the exact species hardly matters! What does matter is Roo's endearing character and its light yet sturdy build, which makes it easy for a child to carry their rocking companion wherever they like. Made from bent plywood and veneer and finished with rounded corners, Roo is a great fit also for public spaces, and its stackable design means several rocking toys can be stored away with ease, without taking up much room.

Made in Latvia, Roo earned an iF Product Design Award in 2013 and a German Design Award: Special Mention in 2014.

Aldis Circenis

Aldis Circenis (b. 1965) is a Latvian designer and architect, one of his country’s best-known names in the field. Trained as an architect at Riga Technical University, Circenis founded his interior design company SIA Coppa in the early 1990s, and in 1999, its sister company Riga Chair Factory began operations. Since 2023, the company has operated under the name Articul.

Circenis is known above all for designing modern, lightweight furniture made of bent birch plywood. In 2012, he became the first Latvian designer to win the prestigious Red Dot Design Award – the prize was awarded for the Bloom stool, which remains in production today.
