Inspiration: Flotation Tanks



































When viewing the clients PowerPoint to come up with a new idea, some themes i noticed they were interested in were similar to some we had previously mentioned such as escapism and relaxation, along with things that caught our attention such as meditation. We thought it would have been a good idea to create some form of shelter for an individual to escape to, to meditate in a unique environment inspired from our experience in a flotation tank. Obviously it would have been unrealistic to create anything similar to this. So we tried to adapt our own representation, but instead using a teepee.




after previously hearing about flotation tanks through Joe Rogan's podcast, this was a massive influence within my work related to meditation. a flotation tank is a lightless, soundproof tank in which you can float in seawater at skin temperature. the aim is to push the boundaries and test the effects of sensory deprivation, many people claim to have vivid hallucinations and out of body experiences.
