Immersive Experience
Kalakaar Bazaar is a forum that allows visual and performing artists to prosper while taking into consideration today’s COVID restrictions. With the goal of retaining the authenticity of the pre-Covid experience, Kalakaar Bazaar is a space that brings together individuals, artisans, and performers for a community experience where guests may dine, enjoy entertainment, and purchase from their local artists.
A cave entrance appears with tracks poking out of the opening, inviting the curious viewer to come in.
As you follow the tracks, you begin to notice abandoned rusty mining tools, some on the floor, others lodged into the cavern walls. On the ceiling there are multiple claws like mechanical devices, creating spooky shadows as you continue the path. The only light sources are cracks/peepholes in the cavern walls, revealing other secret mechanical rooms that may or may not be accessible.
The tree itself has ethereal qualities, with glowing colors emerging from the cracks. What is this place? The tree is a stairway that leads you out of the mines into the great outdoors, and into the OWL’s glorious temple.

Redefining what it means to be a nerd in the 21st century. What happens when you combine a group of misfits and rejects? Well you get this wonderful conundrum of people living their most authentic self.
A place where you spend your time working on individual work projects, playing video games, watching science-fiction movies, or reading comic books. A place where your dysfunctional social group gets along like a charm.

As a class we worked on developing individual museum exhibit spaces in an anchor space based on coral reefs. The exhibits we designed were meant to be engaging, and focus on one of the four principals of learning connected to child development.
The whole process of this was to develop different ways of creating an immersive, interactive, and educational museum space.
