Coalesce
Coalesce is an immersive projection-mapping experience created to break through our online routines and spark real-world human connection. Using large-scale visuals and dynamic motion design, we transformed physical space into a living, breathing canvas, which invites people to look up, engage, and be fully present. The experience encourages spontaneous conversations and shared moments between friends and strangers alike.

Concept
Like fragments of glass, we begin as individual pieces—each with its own shape, color, and story. As we come together, these fragments merge into a vibrant mosaic, a living reflection of shared experiences. Through spaces of light, reflection, and storytelling, the journey reveals the beauty of connection and the power of belonging.
