IMC Toys bolsters design team with Elise Hounslow

Elise Hounslow has joined IMC Toys as one of the firm’s new industrial designers.

Prior to joining IMC Toys, Hounslow was a toy designer at WOW Toys, while also previously having worked in the play space for Xcel Bespoke and Hasbro.

“After a long drive and dodging the lockdowns and jumping the Brexit hurdles, it’s not been the easiest of transitions, but I finally made it to Barcelona, where I’m excited to be joining the IMC Toys team,” said Hounslow.

“I’ll be working on some great new brands as an industrial designer, creating toys, play-sets and crafts in conjunction with some exciting new TV series; and where better to be with the sun, sea and amazing food! I’m very happy to be here and start this new adventure! Felices Fiestas y próspero año 2021!”
