Micro | Spaces

Invitations to invisible activities.

Outside of the comfort zone of home, we are often confronted with the difficulty of sharing the public environment with everyone else. People tend to close themselves off from the rest by using their technological devices, smart phones or music players as a way to escape from the others.

In the urban environment, places and objects are made for the masses, erasing the notion of the individual from the vocabulary. It is important to recover this aspect of individualism and take time to explore again what is hidden behind it. What kind of positive points could bring back, if we focus on it? We have to try to balance the notion of public and private space by finding new solutions which may make the transition between the two more
fluid.

To reach this, we need to dive into people’s emotions and feelings and understand their essential needs. Once we capture those, we can start to create new items that would be based on one individual and fit everybody else too, at the same time. To make this project work, we have to be
able to create micro-scenes, situations where the experience is private. How to find the specific in the general and reach the general by the specific?
