Overview

The Dinner Party is an immersive exhibit that combines physical set design with augmented reality storytelling. Visitors are invited to 'take a seat' at the dinner table where a photographed scene transforms through a device, revealing a layered narrative that exists between the physical and digital. Inspired by the surreal atmospheres of Beetlejuice, Twin Peaks, and The Addams Family.

THE CONCEPT

The dinner table comes alive through augmented reality, revealing layers within the scene that aren't visible at first glance. It moves between stillness and animation, transforming viewing into an act of discovery.

The experience is designed to move beyond passive viewing toward active participation, where curiosity, movement, and attention shape what is revealed.

UX PROBLEM

Gallery experiences often position visitors as passive observers, limiting engagement and discovery. This project explores a different approach:

How might exhibition spaces encourage both discovery and observation?

*In the spirt of being fully present, the live interaction was not formally documented.
