Project Description
Design Intention & Selected Lens
This project asks: Can 10m³ of space matter? Approached through a NARRATIVE and spiritual lens, the design treats space as a medium for presence, introspection, and human dignity. The suggestive spatial sphere—1.34m in radius—becomes a vessel not for shelter alone, but for transformation.
Spatial, Symbolic, and Functional Strategy
The spherical form symbolizes wholeness and containment.
User Experience Narrative
One lives in the sphere. Here, a person confronts what it means to be—to hold desire and duty, sanity and sustenance, within fleeting life. It is not comfort sought, but clarity.
How the 10m³ Constraint Shaped the Design
The 10m³ limit became a moral and spatial discipline. The constraint forced radical simplicity—rejecting waste, embracing essence. It mirrors our planetary reality: finite space, infinite responsibility.
This sphere does not solve crises—but it prepares humans to face them. In a world of excess, this small space stands as an act of reverence: a reminder that to change a life, you don’t need more space—just deeper presence.
