Our roots

It all started at the kitchen table.

In the middle of the pandemic, we wanted to solve puzzles together instead of staring at screens. That's how the FLITCH sliding puzzle came about, and with it the name. Today, in our workshop, we create books, games and printable pages for three worlds.
