Fear, 3D Form
In this project, we explored the words Fear, Home, and Privacy.
For our design, we chose to depict these concepts by creating a structure highlighting the three words, fear, home, and privacy. We did this by designing a mechanism that hides when someone gets close, as if afraid of losing their privacy that makes them feel at home.

Interaction
Our project was a visual representation of the three words Fear, Home, and Privacy. We did this by designing a mechanism that hides when it senses something close as if it is fearful of losing its privacy which makes it feel at home.
