Perception, Materiality and Future Scenarios
Summary
Sensing the future through materials, we explore how touch, texture, and meaning intertwine. Matter becomes message—alive in space—shaping sustainable worlds where humans, nature, and technology exist in delicate, evolving harmony.Sensing the future through materials, we explore how touch, texture, and meaning intertwine.
