BrickBox brings all natural disasters happening around the globe to a more personal level
BrickBox is a "black box" for people to find interest towards what is happening inside.
According to what natural disaster BrickBox focuses on, the installation inside will change, the concept we provide is for the installation for wild fire issues.
People will be walking through in the order from "Feel" "Think" and "Act"
With "Feel" people will be able to sense the danger of the disaster through smell, sound, and the temperature. For "Think" people will be able to see the number of damages through tactile experience. Last, "Act" will show the impact you could give towards the area to prevent the disaster or for supporting the place with natural disaster issues.
What needs to be done towards preventing much of the danger from natural disaster it is important to build up the affected community.
Our goal is for people all around the world to take home a deeper understanding and new perspective on natural disasters.
