Design lead: Adrian Chîu, Henry Mai, Arnel Espanol

NEST is driven by the idea of creating a space of comfort and introspection within a system of complexity and disarray. Inspired by the impromptu structures that people would construct during public demonstration, it uses readily available materials in an unconventional way to create a unique form and experience. The overwhelming nature of information and everyday life is expressed through the chaotic texture and asymmetrical form of the installation. Composed of modular cells that contain a weave of colourful webs, NEST provides both shelter and playful moments of light and shadow within the space. Rigid structure and chaotic exterior is contrasted with the more calming simple interior. The internal experience allows the visitor to momentarily step away from the noise, pause, and view the world through a clear lens.
