Aura – The Energy that Connects

Team

–

Aura reimagines festival design with a dynamic, interactive centrepiece that blends sound, movement, and space. As an information hub and an experiential landmark, this modular tower captures the energy of each music stage and not only expresses that in a tangible, sensory experience, but addresses the challenges of navigating festivals.

Each level of Aura corresponds to a festival stage, bringing live sound and rhythm to life. The tower’s kinetic walls, dynamically transform in real time. These motions and sound create a constantly evolving spectacle responding to data gathered from a series of pods that surround each stage, translating the music’s frequency and the crowd’s energy into waves that ripple across the facade.

Beyond its striking appearance, Aura is a central hub, allowing attendees to sense the vibe of each stage and decide where to go, making their experience more intuitive, informed, and connected.

Aura’s vision links distant places, letting people experience live soundscapes from around the globe. Picture a pod in the Amazon rainforest or bustling Tokyo transmitting live to an Aura tower in London, fostering global connection and shared experiences.

Aura embodies a fresh approach to design—one that inspires, connects, and evolves with its environment, wherever it may be.
