Diploma Project
Memory Triggers

Memory Triggers explores the articulation of places that currently exist only in memories. The project engages in introspection through past living spaces, with the aim of highlighting what memories ultimately preserve the most: the experiences lived in those spaces. This introspective journey is presented through an installation offering three progressive readings: a text, a dreamlike object, and an immersion in augmented reality. Originating from Marion’s memories, each object reflects the essence of the atmosphere experienced in those spaces, creating a typology of spatial experiences. These objects function as Proust’s Madeleine, allowing individuals to revisit their own memories of past spaces.
