Concept
Concrete Nests is a transmedia project about the ways that the pandemic influenced the personal lives of people living in blocks of flats around the world. By gathering all their stories in the stories of a block building, our team re-created and developed the intimate relationship that used to be built around the idyllic interaction between you and our neighbors.
Due to the recent phenomenon of the global pandemic, we as social creatures were conditioned to regress and create our own concrete fences meant to bring us safety. In our frantic ways of isolating ourselves from the outside world, we end up losing these connections made with the individuals from our proximity.
Whether or not you live in an apartment building, Concrete Nests invites you to knock on one of the neighbors’ digital doors, step into their apartments and explore their way of living, discovering what they’ve encountered during recent times.
