Dezain Radar summary
StudioDrift co-founder Lonneke Gordijn illustrates how kinetic installations and biological mimicry can bridge the gap between technical systems and human emotion. By translating natural rhythms into mechanical movements, these projects aim to foster a deeper sense of wonder and environmental connection.
