From idea to reality: creating a calming, fully immersive experience room
Welcome to The Breathing Room
An interactive installation to create a space where you can take a seat at any time to unwind, seek inspiration or recharge your energy.
The Breathing Room is a concept designed for the workplace. A dedicated space you can turn to at any time: to start the day, recharge after a low-energy moment, or unwind at the end of the day. The Breathing Room is always there for you.
This immersive experience helps you relax, clear your mind, and reconnect with yourself. Upon entering the room, you are prompted with a few questions, which determine the type of guided breathing session you will experience.
“Be calm, be briljant”
First visual of the concept
proces
To develop The Breathing Room, there were two main aspects to consider:
The coding part
The visual part
I was responsible for the visual aspect, which includes everything the user sees. This ranged from the design of the room, wooden elements, and posters, to the animated visuals during the breathing sessions (created with creative coding), and more.
Results
This project took four months to complete, and it was incredibly rewarding to see it finally in use. While the final result wasn’t perfect due to the constraints of the school building, the experience was highly valuable.
