 Family Pearl





Vou te contar como foi... 
I will tell you how it went...

This object is invaluable. It’s protected for any eventuality and it should be opened with a lot of care.
When the box is opened you will find the book of tales from the last generation which should be preserved for future consultation. Inside are the stories that deserve to be read and immortalized. A book without boundaries of content or form. A tradition to be passed from one generation to the next, who’s job is to keep it updated. An endless project

in order to end up as a book“

1 book with 4 covers
1 Generation, 4 sisters



This generation has four fun sisters. They all share the same stories, but each one tells them in their own special way. For this reason, inspired by the concept of Self-Fiction, this one of a kind book was designed with four covers, one for each sister, and therefore can be read in four different directions.
 







Quem conta um conto, acrescenta um ponto...
