Kind Regards 2020
Kind Regards is a collection of postcards crafted from edible wafer paper, that allow the recipients to savor the taste of seasonal foods and sample the native plants of various countries. Each postcard features seasonal regional foods from its place of origin, serving as a unique way to share the flavors of landscapes across distances.
To safeguard the postcard during transit, a specially designed packaging was created. This packaging not only protects the delicate postcard but also provides the recipient with information about its origin and composition. Through an engaging riddle format, the recipient can compare their taste perception and verify their assumptions about the postcard's ingredients. Through this project important knowledge about seasonal and regional cuisine is shared through a playful and immersive way. Four sets of postcards have been created to highlight the flavors of Japan, Greece, Germany, and Brazil during various months. Each set represents the unique tastes of the country, providing an exploration of culinary diversity throughout the year.
