In Utero

Category: Performance Design, Alternative, Space Design

Design Statement

‘In Utero’ is part of Hospital Club’s 10th Anniversary Celebration party. In response to the building’s history as a Maternity Hospital, my concept is to create an utopian retreat inspired by mother’s womb.

In order to create a multi-sensory experience of being in the Womb, designs are focused on senses: Touch - soft fabrics, Sight - colour and lighting, and Hearing - Sound designer creates soundtracks of Heartbeat, water sounds and lullaby. Lighting is low and ambient, and so is the music, these effects lull guests into a state of calm.

Organic dome structure suggests form of Womb - I have decided to create a modular shelter with jointed umbrellas. Metaphorically, an umbrella shields people against rain / sunlight, likewise, the womb protects the foetus in a safe environment. Technically, umbrellas are modular, flexible materials that can be assembled and dissembled in a short time.

During the course of the event ‘In Utero’ becomes a social platform for spectators to feel enclosed, and suck wine from tubes: an intimate drinking experience inspired by umbilical cord and blood circulation.
