Renaissance of the Real
What does it feel like to breathe inside a sculpture?
These images give you a glimpse of the world within – the 7th Breathing Bubble we built for Annabelle Schneider, making its world premiere outdoors at Salone del Mobile in Milan. Open and accessible to all, with a barrier-free entrance, the Bubble invites every visitor to step in and simply be.
In the garden of Fondazione Luigi Rovati, Annabelle Schneider’s Breathing Bubble and the USM Haller system – designed by Snøhetta – merge into a multisensory installation, where the soft textile membrane and the modular steel grid are organically interwoven.
A space to breathe, to listen, to simply be present.
