We want to escape from routine reality. To imagine our lives and ordinary routines differently, we rely on the freedom of our imagination. Referencing things that are simultaneously familiar and unknown, Fantastic Pursuit is an imaginative search for a pre-human utopia. The result of a design exercise to envision anew, this series of objects are elements of an alternate natural world where fantastical creatures roam in a wild, exuberant, and colorful paradise.
