The accidental marks we wipe away without a second thought. Made worth pausing for.
Choose an overlooked everyday object and find the story within it. Research it deeply, build a narrative, and create a fully resolved design outcome.
Coffee stains. The rings on paper, the spills on fabric, the residue on a desk. Things we wipe away without a second thought. This project asks what happens when you stop and actually look at them properly. When the throwaway becomes the subject. When the mundane becomes magnificent.
A black and white photographic publication pairing coffee stain photography with original poetry. The monochrome palette strips away distraction — the texture, form and quiet beauty of each stain gets to speak for itself. Photography and poetry working together to reframe the ordinary as something worth pausing for.
