The Room of Embracing

A space that not only represents hugs but makes them tangible – a place that holds, warms, and invites reflection. 
The installation creates a conscious experience of the embrace, highlighting its emotional, social, and physical significance.
Through carefully chosen design elements soft shapes, gentle materials, and warm colors an atmosphere of security and comfort emerges. 
Interactive components encourage visitors to reflect on their own experiences with hugging: When do we embrace? Whom do we embrace? What does an embrace evoke within us?
The experience resonates beyond the moment itself, raising awareness of the importance of closeness, comfort, and human connection. 
In this way, the installation fosters an appreciation of the power of the embrace as an expression of love, trust, and humanity.
Exhibited at the Detmold Design Week 2025.
