What would go in your Curiosity Box?
What would go in your curiosity box to encourage nostalgia?
One of the ideas we're beginning to explore is how familiarity, recognition and connection might look in different cultures and communities around the world.
Our current Curiosity Box was designed in the UK, using everyday objects that many older people here would recognise from earlier in life. But what feels familiar in Kent may be very different from what feels familiar in Adelaide, Mumbai, Hong Kong or Toronto.
So we'd love to hear from you.
If you were creating a curiosity box for someone in your part of the world, what would you include?
It could be anything:
• A household object
• A toy or game
• A festival decoration
• Something completely unexpected
We're curious about the objects, experiences and cultural touchstones that help people feel recognised, connected and understood in different parts of the world. We'd love to hear your stories, what these things are, how they were used, and why they hold meaning for the people and communities around them. We look forward to learning from you.
