As AR technology evolves, we began to wonder how the way we experience social networking might change. What if our thoughts could hover above our heads? From this question came the concept of Hats—an AR glasses app where users design quirky virtual headwear each day to signal their mood or identity, visible through smart glasses. Hats serves as a symbol that turns inner states into shareable forms, enabling a more presence-driven form of social networking.

Hope
Tapping away the weight of COVID to reveal hope
HOPE is an AR filter designed during the Covid-19 lockdown. Inspired by the myth of Pandora’s box, the experience invites users to tap away colorful floating orbs—revealing the word HOPE in the background. The piece was intended as a light but symbolic gesture, offering a sense of optimism in a time of uncertainty.
