What are Deal Toys?

Deal Toys are customized mementos that commemorate the closing of a business deal in finance or investment banking.

As a Designer at Buttonwood Mementos in NYC, I created custom commemorative designs that captured clients’ visions and the significance of their deals. Starting with sketches and detailed 2D schematics in Illustrator, I developed designs that I then rendered in Blender, producing 3D mock-ups. This process allowed clients to see how their pieces would look in crystal, lucite, metal, or wood before they were brought to life.
