Background
A conversation tool for children and parents about phone habits and digital balance.

Detechtives

A playful conversation tool where children and parents build a smartphone together from scratch. Through hardware components, apps, and conversation cards, they explore how phones work and how they affect everyday life, relationships, and wellbeing. The project was developed through interviews, observations, and co-design workshops to support dialogue, reflection, and more mindful digital habits within families.
