The project

The same question. Different ways of seeing.

WORLDS BY explores the world through children’s perspectives. Our idea is to ask children in different parts of the world the same simple questions and let them answer through drawings.

How it works

Why drawing

A drawing is an answer.

Drawing gives each child space to respond in their own way. A wish, home, the future: we want to discover what these questions bring to mind in different lives.

The drawings stand on their own. Alongside them, we share only an approved country and, optionally, a first name and age.

We create objects that carry these perspectives further, beginning with socks.

Our approach

Three principles guide us.

Children’s perspectives lead.

We begin with a question. Children draw their answers freely, and those answers guide what we create.

Every answer has a place.

Everyday, playful and serious answers all belong here. We make room for each perspective.

The drawings speak for themselves.

We show the drawings as they are, with room for you to discover your own connections.

Working with our partners

How value returns.

The objects also create value for the community behind the drawings. We intend a share of each purchase to return to the participating school, organisation or community.

The exact model will be agreed with each partner and published before launch.
