Our experiment consists of an interactive experience within a public space, which creates a psychological and responsive border. It triggers people’s curiosity, and challenges their spatial awareness with a violent reaction. We realised that the nature of the border resides on this responsive psychology: there is no limit if you don’t sense it, there is no barrier if you decide not to see it.

Our project develops a new solution – creative, temporary and experimental – to the problems of commuting in an overcrowded city. Re/border creates a dynamic almost invisible threshold that, with no need of walls and oppressive constructions, can still divide spaces and control people’s flow.
