Emotion mask | BYOM | Dubaï Design Week


My mask Emotion is part of the project BYOM initiated by Hyperaktiv.li

Following the new norm of wearing a mask, the bottom of our face is no longer visible, we become like walls facing each other, without sharing positive or negative reactions. Thanks to the Emotion mask all the expressions will finally be transcribed. Emotion is a mask, which thanks to folds inspired by origami, can transcribe the smile that is profiled below. Even if you can often read a feeling in someone's eyes, a simple smile can be very warm and can make it easier to understand the emotion of the person opposite. The folding system reflects a slight thinning that recalls the digital connections which we are increasingly establishing with the internet and new means of communication.

« As part of ‘Reflections of Swiss Innovation’, a curated exhibition staged by the Swiss embassy, focussing on innovation and dedicated to the Swiss creative industries, we were invited to exhibit our masks with BYOM during the Dubai design week that took place in November 2020 »
