IMAGINE THE WORLD IN THE FUTURE IMAGINE YOU HAVE NO LIMITS IMAGINE THAT IT ALL DEPENDS ON YOUR IMAGINATION

​

METAVERSO introduces the use of a particular type of glasses as a means of connection between realities, summarizing the multiple meanings of the entrance in a small object. The project allows reality to be related to virtual imagination, merging one into the other and visualizing them in real life. Through the glasses each house can be seen and perceived as one's own, transforming the simple movement of crossing the threshold into another equally simple one: opening one's eyes. The door sees its form ideally deconstructed in such a way that the crack invites people and also the environment itself to enter. The shape, evoking a spiral, allows the entrance to appear as a filter between inside and outside, allowing for the absence of a physical boundary identified in the space, and defines a more internal and private space accessible only by entering the nucleus. The internal environments are fluid and accessible through their succession, the advancement finds a succession with growing intimacy, from the public space arriving at the heart of the private home. The circle protects and reassures, it is the figure that circumscribes the layout of the living unit. The simplicity of the structure allows complexity and variety of interpretations, perceptions and customizations.
