Check out these Maquettes! These scaled architectural models use projection mapping to reveal how people move through buildings and public spaces. A powerful tool for designers and researchers, they help us better understand flow, behavior, and space planning. #maquettes

The next frontier of communication isn’t what we see β€” it’s what we feel. Stories that move, breathe, and respond: that’s Experiential Communication.

🌿 The Trees Chime In β€” an immersive installation inviting guests into a meditative, multi-sensory experience guided by the voice of an ancient tree.

Through haptics, reflection, and interaction, explore your connection to nature and leave with a seed of intention to live more consciously.

A perfect summer day. Creating silk scarves in a studio where nature danced in the windows around us. What made it special was that I had my name written in Kanji, & realized the first character means ocean (my son's name). Thanks to CSA Japan for this unforgettable gift with Cecily and Kate.
