Emily Fox created these charming animal characters and landscape illustration for Welt Der Sinne or, World of Senses, a board game for the German company HABA.

This was the perfect brief for Emily who was asked for clear, bright, warm and pleasant colours with kindly, positive humanized creatures to appeal to children of 4 years and up. World of Senses is a collection of games to to help develop the senses: hearing, sight, touch, smell and taste. Set in a Native American environment with a rabbit, fox, racoon or bear for each player choose from – you have to collect feathers for victory points and a wooden owl is a kindly shaman who shows which trail you can pass.
