THE HANGI INDEX

Only what I’ve experienced myself, recorded by five measures.
LOOK — Does it look good?
FEEL — Does the experience feel good?
QUALITY — Is it well made?
VALUE — Is it worth it?
KEEP — Would I come back for it?

A deeply personal index, shaped by taste and experience built up over time.
