What does death really mean to us? This project delves into the topic of death education, specifically in a family setting. The designer was inspired to create a time capsule after realizing she didn't know much about her grandfather after he passed away. The time capsule serves as a way to record memories at different stages of life, providing a basis for direct communication with future generations. Through this project, the designer aims to encourage families to confront difficult topics like death and to preserve memories that can be passed down through generations.
