Recording MemoriesA step-by-step ritual on how to record and collect smells. Each circle is a puzzle when completed creates an entry log on the backside. 

The end product is a liquid smell that is collected in a black dropper bottle.
















Experienceing Memories A vinyl device used to experience smells that uses ultraviolet vibarator to allow newer generations to experience smells collected through the circle method.


Prototyping             



How it all started?
Initial prototyping started with creating a graphic path to visualising smells. 

The card contains components that make a smell personal and universal at the same time, this creates a hex code that can be used to indetntify each smell. 

















This initial conceptualization was the building block for the rest of the project.






The project sits on the intersection between graphic design and industrial design allowing the outcome to be determined by the story.
