Why it matters
You keep meaning to put the phone down.
But the day disappears anyway. Two more hours gone to the scroll, the book still face-down on the nightstand, the friend you meant to write to. That's not a willpower problem.
The apps are built to be endless. Your evenings aren't. The Offline Box gives you the other thing. Something real, finite and yours, so putting the phone down finally has somewhere to go.
Only from us
Three things you can't get anywhere else.
One
The Magazine
Written and photographed by us, built around that month's theme, with a letter from us inside.
Two
The Manuscript
A story you help write. One chapter a month, arriving sealed, and a vote on where it goes next.
Three
The Passport
Twelve months, a record of yours. It comes with your first box and you fill it in as you go.
What's inside
Every box is different. The feeling isn't.
Nothing needs charging. Nothing needs an app. Just a box full of real things to read, make, cook and experience.

An evening you'll actually remember.
A new theme every month, and nothing to decide before you start.
-
You become someone who makes things.
Hands busy, phone face-down, at whatever pace suits you.
-
Something worth talking about at dinner.
An offline magazine written around the month's theme, made to be read aloud.
-
A story you help write.
Your vote decides what happens next in the Manuscript.
-
No excuse left not to start.
Everything you need is in the box. Nothing to buy, look up or charge.

Here's what members received in a recent box.
An honest example of the quality, variety and amount included. What's in yours stays a surprise until it lands.
July — the winter issue
August — clay, ceramics and the last of winter
A new theme every month, so no two boxes are ever the same
“The Manuscript is the best idea and actually so amazing. I could not put it down, and then my 12 year old daughter read it, and she got my 13 year old son to.”

Open the box. Pick something. Put your phone somewhere else for a while.
The one rule
You don't have to be any good at it.
This isn't self-improvement. Nothing in the box needs tracking, optimising or turning into a side hustle. The pot can come out crooked. The bread can come out flat.
It still counts. It was your evening, and you spent it doing something instead of watching someone else do it.

No surprises
This isn't another thing to optimise.
No streaks. No apps. No homework. No pressure to be good at anything.
It's simply a box full of good reasons to do something else.
Twelve months of it
Before you ask
Questions
When will my first box arrive?
Boxes go out at the end of each month, so your first box reaches you at the end of the month you join. Your welcome email confirms the details.
What do I get each month?
A new theme every month, with a handful of real things to make, grow, read, cook and write, plus a brand-new issue of the magazine with a letter from us inside. The mix changes each month, so no two boxes are the same.
Can I cancel?
Cancel anytime through your account, or reply to any email and we will do it for you. No phone calls, no guilt. Cancel before your next charge and you won't be billed again.
When am I charged?
You are charged today when you join, then on the same date each month. Your price stays $99 for as long as you are a member.
Do you post everywhere in Australia?
Yes, anywhere in Australia, with free shipping. (We're Australia-only for now.)
Can I gift one?
Absolutely. Use the same checkout and add the recipient's address and a note, or write to us and we'll arrange a gift card.
