Abstract

Exhaustion is the surfeit of modern society’s excess. Growth is an essential aspect of modern economies and our everyday life. We embark on journeys searching for the infinite, only to find ourselves in the middle of nowhere to realize that the infinite that we have been searching for is not a destination. The project designs an environment with and for play that stimulates people to engage in a playful way of long-term tourism in order to cure the exhaustion brought on them by society and to address their own exhaustiveness.
