The hotel rehab acts as medicine that aims to enhance and restore the quality of life. The interior of the hotel creates a surreal environments where the perception of normal is questioned. This is manifested through objects that reflect our interaction with technology. It is another world with its own standards and measurements. Visitors are coerced by the space and its artefacts into situations that reflect their addictive behaviour. Visitors are to rehabilitate themselves from their addiction to technology.
The aim of this project is to break free from the usual feel of a rehabilitation centre giving the patient a more relaxed and less-clinical environment. The space links the comforts of a hotel with the intentions of a rehabilitation centre. The activities taking place and the feel of the space will hopefully engage the patient in new ways to enpower the lasting effects of the treatment.

After training in Bharatanatyam for over ten years, the motive behind this project comes from a very personal place. Growing up in Kenya, we never really had a great space for learning dance, but did it in whatever little means were possible. We used to practice in a lunch hall of a public school for many years, where the floors were never swept, and some days there would be no electricity.
Then we moved to another public school and practiced in the class rooms, with dusty desks and chairs that would be pushed to the side during practice. None of this stopped us from having fun, making great memories and learning Bharatanatyam.

The Womb Project is a study developing the potential for a learning environment that is more effective, challenging existing learning environments. It bases its background on psychological and physiological experiments studying ones feeling on safety and its effects on learning.
