Google Doodle, Building Blocks
My idea of writing 'Google' with building blocks came from playing with my two kids and their wooden blocks. We were using a set of primary color blocks, and the colors and shapes reminded me of Google. This inspired me to use the blocks to create an abstract version of Google's wordmark.
For nearly two centuries, wooden building blocks have been a common presence in children's playrooms (and for the adults who join in), enriching their playtime experiences. In the 1800s, German education pioneer Friedrich Fröbel crafted wooden block set, laying the groundwork for his innovative approach to early childhood education. Fröbel, renowned for inventing "Kindergarten," revolutionized the field and his educational concept remains influential today.
