Description

Collecting different dolls is one of my habits, it is the reason I started this project. Those dolls make me feel happy and will make me miss my carefree life in my childhood. But many people think that playing with dolls is childish, and labeling dolls are only for children. In fact, many adults treat collecting dolls as a hobby, some of them will buy new dolls regularly. Therefore, I collected a lot of stories about people and dolls to understand why they like dolls and how to get along with them. And in different stories, I find that people play with their dolls with different mindsets. Based on the interview with doll lovers, I separated the stories into 4 categories and designed four kinds of experiences, which are: make a doll friend, meet a doll friend, repair a doll friend and share a doll friend. Hope this project can provide a brand new perspective of playing with dolls to the public.
