The Ice Breaker

KATIA RABEY

pendant
silver, perspex, steel, rubber

When the human eye catches a glimpse of text, it involuntarily stops, captures the content and this affects later actions. The design, exploiting this natural dynamic of automatic reading, acts as an ice-breaker between the wearer and the surrounding people. In fact, the pendant has an internal disk that rotates to progressively reveal new messages, taking on the form of a tool to encourage the shyest people to engage in conversations.
