Urbanization has caused significant population shifts and changes in family dynamics. People are leaving their hometowns for city living, leading to fragmented extended families. Additionally, busy urban lifestyles reduce interactions between generations. Digitalization further exacerbates this disconnect, with younger generations predominantly social online and older generations struggling to connect to younger generations in the traditional way.
This project proposes a dining table that preserves family members' unique traces. The table enables assigning physical mementos, like photos and notes, to different generations. Rotating layers allow stories to overlap, capturing the essence of family life. By providing tangible companionship and encouraging thoughtfulness, the table aims to counter the impact of urbanization and foster family unity.
