Camera Obscura

This Project, which occurs in 2085, envisions Papplewick Pumping Station as an escape for young individuals suffering from dementia and early-onset Alzheimer's. The building, which was once used for industrial purposes, is now a place of care where artificial intelligence and architecture work together to restore what times started to destroy. The area listens to, learns from and reacts to each user's distinct memory patterns using AI-powered sensory spaces. It creates customised soundscapes, fragrances, projections, and tactile settings that subtly arouse memories that have lain dormant. The five senses are used in the design not just as triggers but also as connections, linking people with aspects of their identities. AI in this potential future is instinctive, emotive, deeply human.
