Door!

2017

in collaboration with Hannes Nehls

The opening and closing of doors have been around for thousands of years. People have learned to interpret the heaviness of doors and the strength that must be exerted to open them. Heavy doors are associated with value, demarcation and danger. Door! is a mechatronic enhanced door. To open it requires users to overcome an perceivable resistance. This way, simple information can be communicated to users, such as a danger in the next room.
