'The Search for Singularity'
Design Hotels (2023)

A spatial design practice in service of stillness and mindfulness.

Arena23 – We Are Here – a four-day cultural event produced by the Berlin team at Design Hotels, brought together 450 creative minds behind some of the world’s most innovative destination venues to celebrate art, food, culture, and sustainable design. On the second day of the programme, Aerial Palettes designed and produced an immersive experience to welcome guests arriving for a catered dinner by Otto, set within the grand industrial space of Wilhelm Hallen.

CONCEPT
'The Search for Singularity'

How can we evoke a state of focus after an extended period of disruption?

‘The Search for Singularity’ draws the observer into a sensory ecosystem, systematically narrowing their attention over four spatially designed stages, until guests arrive at a state of Being. Each environment within the walk-through experience removes a layer of distraction from the outside world, culminating in a final resting point: a single light source.
