Fire Knock
Hi, we are Lore, Yorick and Manou.
For an assignment for school we had to design a fire installation. First of all we started to freely brainstorm of what already existed or what we first thought about hearing the word 'fire'.
Soon we realized that we wanted to create something that encourages people to come and play with our installation. Because of the fact that the target audience is very spread (from young to old), we had to find something that’s pleasant for everyone. We opted for a gift! A gift that you get when you win the game. What you need to do is hit the button with the hammer. This hit will create a flash fire that needs to burn a string. Because the gift is hanging on that string, the present drops when the flame is high enough. As additional there will be also a wonderful smell of fresh baked cookies.
