title: In refuting Stillness

We are always looking for discoveries and perspectives resulting from new experiences and feelings that give life a new meaning.

“Movement” as a concept, has enabled us to change our understanding and perception of the environment.

In refuting Stillness, we decided to utilize the motif of Islamic Geometric Designs and combine them with dynamic architectural features in a technological context, in order to generate patterns that human beings interact with not only the user, but also as a participant.

Ultimately, this will allow the user to experience the sense of space in a new way, created by the contrast between inertia and motion. We believe that the ultimate excitement for the user lies there.
