EST. 1984 · PRIVATE COLLECTION
A quiet archive of watches, letters, cameras, printed matter, domestic objects, and pieces of everyday life gathered across four decades.
Browse the archive →Not everything important belongs in a museum. Some things matter because they were ordinary: a handwritten receipt, a faded tin, a camera carried on a first trip abroad.

FIELD NOTE
We keep marks, scratches, fading, repairs, and handwritten notes visible. They are not defects to restore away. They are evidence that an object lived alongside someone.
“Age is not damage. Sometimes it is the most important part of the object.”
BY APPOINTMENT
Private viewings are available on selected Saturdays for researchers, students, designers, and curious visitors.
