Therapy service Self Space collaborated with Caukin Studio to create Feelings Library in London, a pop-up library that helps to support mental health. The small space is styled like a tropical hut and on the inside, people are given the privacy to journal.
The design of the pop-up library helps to bring awareness to mental health and encourages people to get their feelings out in a healthy way. The safe space for journaling is set right in the middle of the city yet it creates a sense of calm and escape with its tropical feel and the seclusion that it offers. The studio intended for the space to be "a vessel for everything we want to discard" and it is lined with self-help books.
