Tactile Enrichment

Tactile Enrichment is a series of fidget toys that focus on the sense of touch. The series consists of five cubes, each measuring 50 by 50 by 50 millimetres. Every cube is made from a single material: clay, leather, metal, wood or fabric. The same three dimensional pattern is applied to all five cubes, so the difference between materials can be felt by hand. Each material has a different weight, temperature and smell. The cubes can be held and played with while the eyes are busy and the hands are free. The intent is to reduce reliance on vision and give touch a larger role in daily experience.
