nostalgia is the mood board memory made for itself
Now I am reminded of a beautiful quote by David Adjaye:
“Buildings are deeply emotive structures which form our psyche. People think they’re just things they manoeuvre through, but the makeup of a person is influenced by the nature of spaces.”
A shared space not for expanding or building taller, but for filling with objects of memories and values. To strangers it might just look like a jumble of junk. To the friends involved, it is an ever growing shrine of a communal history.
