Wunderkit: five objects for creativity
People surround themselves with objects. Sometimes they are mysterious objects, found in the street, or autobiographical objects, taken from the toolbox. They can be talismans, totally useless yet beautiful objects, objects smelling new or antique objects. They all trigger memories, stories and inspirations. In this special interview for Wunderkit the illustrator Carlo Stanga talks about himself and his personal kit of wonders: Munari trees, a design light bulb to motivate play, a Pythagorean glass, notebooks and keys that create bridges between surprise and unexplored territories.
Five objects in dialogue between wonder and creativity, work and passion, play and measure.
