What does the consumption of goods do for us? What makes us happy when spending money? Is it just the moment or is it a simple eyecatcher that leads us to this specific behavior?
Things you want to have or to touch while you think they make you happy. What colours, surfaces and textures make a normal object to an object of desire?
Can we play with these codes?
Are there specific satisfying materials if so, which are they?
Through our observations in shoppingmalls, youtube channels and pictures, we tried to find materials in shanghai, to shape and create them that could give us a so-called eye massage. We decided that form, colour and materials are the things that control our eyes and tempt us to consume.
