In designing this journal and brass bookmark, we explore the delicate nature of our lives through the universal "fragile" symbol, often seen on packages to alert handlers to take care.
This symbol speaks to us beyond its material context, becoming a metaphor for the vulnerable, precious elements we carry within us.
The "fragile" sign reminds us of the many forms of fragility that shape our human experience: the fragility of relationships, emotions, dreams, and the fleeting moments we hold dear. Much like the items marked to be handled with care, the intangible aspects of our lives—trust, love, memories—require a gentle touch and thoughtful attention.
These designs invite you to approach the world and your inner self with mindfulness, to pause and honour the beauty in all things fragile. Through this journal and bookmark, we celebrate the strength that lies within our awareness of life’s delicate elements, reminding us to hold close what is truly valuable.
