Milan-based toy designer Alessandro Pasotti has carved out an enviable career. Serving some of the biggest toy manufacturers across the globe, as well as small local ones, he creates a wide range of products that encourage kids’ creativity and role play.

Pasotti’s designs are accurate representations of real products: kitchens, trolleys, scooters and more. They often are incredibly intricate, and scaled down so that they can be carried around in a small hand and played with on a table.

But Pasotti’s success has brought about challenges. “In the toy design industry, where modifications and updates are always very complex, I needed a better methodology to think, design and engineer a product,” he said. “It needed to be tuned to grant the perfect mix between the creative side and the engineering side of the product itself.”

Pasotti sought a unified solution that would give him access to all the tools he needed, all within the same platform. As a result, he adopted the 3DEXPERIENCE platform – and was able to streamline the workflow in his business.

“The flexibility of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform has allowed me to achieve that integrated design flow I was looking for in my daily work,” Pasotti said. “I can do exactly what I need, when I want and when it’s really needed.”
