Ideas

Even though we are taught in the same manner, we all share different perspectives on the same subject. Likewise, our camera’s viewfinder displays different images towards an identical object. Therefore, looking at people, places, and things through a viewfinder is critical.

Concepts

The viewfinder symbolizes individuals' ideas and perspectives. These shapes and colors represent people’s different thoughts and emotions.

Sketches

Development

Viewfinder

Photographers’ thoughts and emotions at the moment of capturing are expressed in words on their pictures

It is a place where a user can share his or her pictures and enjoy looking at others

Users are allowed to play with words and interact with the photographer

It is an introduction page for the photographer. Also, users allow seeing the photographers’ other pictures

The exhibition space - Viewfinder

This is a Viewfinder at the Foam Museum. Eye tracking, a sensor technology, detects visitors’ presence and follows what they are looking at in real-time. This technology allows a tv screen to display specific photograph that is observed by visitors in real-time. A bigger-sized screen, which displays past photos from the tv screen, is also placed inside the museum.
