Digital Amulets

Interactive Product Design | 2022
Digital Amulets series explores the concept of amulets in the modern age, shifting the traditional notion of tangible objects imbued with protective qualities towards a digital realm. Inspired by the comfort and sense of safety derived from physical amulets, such as a jade bracelet from a loved one or a dreamcatcher gifted by a friend, this project delves into the potential of digitized forms to provide similar feelings of security and connection.
