A React app featuring a pair of interactive 3d-rendered images that capture sentiments of the past and future. This project received the Design Award for Best in Experimentation at the 2021 UIC Year End Show.

view of a living room from behind a sofa. a round rug sits beneath a midcentury oval coffee table containing a Rubik's cube, a gameboy, an ashtray, a cup of tea, and a candle. in front is a TV stand, beside a neon sign of a smiley face. — then

a bus stop in front of a grassy field with cherry trees. a utility pole appears to the left, with an empty circular road sign beside it. a cup of coffee is left on the ground beside a bench. an LCD screen reads "07 Tomorrow"
