Standards play a significant role in our lives, dictating how we move and function. The German Institute for Standardization, known as DIN, has compiled over 34,000 standards. These industry standards shape our daily movements (especially in motion design where we spend extended periods in front of computers).
The project's goal is to encourage individuals to explore their movement and embrace forms that make them feel alive, free from the constraints of standards, optimization, and body image obsession.
