Thread, Storytelling
Thread is an intergenerational social space that responds to spatial ageism and the growing loneliness experienced by both the ‘Third Age’ and Gen Z. The project reimagines ageing as an active process shaped by interaction, participation, and environment.
Inspired by the concept of the palimpsest, Thread functions as a living archive where stories, memories, and experiences are layered over time through collective participation. The space is split into spoken, visual, and written storytelling, using shared narratives to encourage meaningful social connection and exchange between generations.
