Here they are making Dreams
I believe Olafur is An speculative artist. His job is working with dreams...., 
he creates a world, we are familiar with.  As if we've been there before. 
It has a nostalgic feel to it while also being a unique environment. 
 A waterfall In the exhibition,
Mirrors in which I, as an audience member, am in the center. 
As if I am in the center of this incredible world 
The familiar everyday image of ME, but in a completely different setting. 
I believe Olafur is attempting to ENFACE the audience to themselves 
through the use of mirrors, light, and vision.
Olafur Eliasson: 
"Things change relative to the way we look at them.
There is no central perspective."
I believe nowadays people are much the viewer than the adventurer.
I like the project that requires engagement with audiences. People are invited to encourage, to participate in it. For instant: People are drawn to the mirrors made in  Olafur's studio, among all the sophisticated master sculptures, paintings, and lighting in the Palace of Versailles. People enjoy exploration and adventure.

ownership of world
Olafur believes we have an impact or something to say when we are experiencing something, an artwork, an installation within an exhibition, or a movie.

 I think, the more we understand the word, the more we are able to make changes to it.
 I believe art and design, more specifically, everyday objects should provide an opportunity for the user to discover and learn. 

my design project aim is to investigate how daily objects can help individuals to do things in the right amount of time and more self-consciously and mindfully so that their attention span might be enhanced. I chose a table lamp as a daily object, but a lamp that is multiplied tasker. Why lamp? The answer is in the first aim of slow design which is the right time.
It happened to many of us that while reading a book or browsing social media, find a sentence, or a quote very inspiring. Therefore, we write it down in our notebook or take a screenshot to save it. bombard with information, one quote became unique for us and we pause to think about those words.
We all are familiar with a situation when we make a deal with ourselves but surprisingly after a while we might completely forget, which is very common and of course disappointing. 
 Many studies have found that when we are about to sleep, our bodies are relaxed, with less muscle tension. The body and brain transition from wakefulness to sleep as focused attention is reduced. The mind has the potential for a better memory between the levels of consciousness and unconsciousness. (healthysleep.med.Harvard, 2008)
All you need to do is save those sentences in your phone's notebook. When you turn on the lamp, it automatically connects to your phone via Bluetooth and reads the text aloud in your voice. A simulator, in theory, creates your voice. The lamp throws a spinning spiral pattern of light on the ceiling. The Spiral shape aids in maintaining consciousness for a longer period and better relaxation.

About Working in an interdisciplinary studio:
Professor Alex says: "The signature function is extremely powerful.
I believe many people find it difficult to stray too far from it because it ensures visibility"

According to Alex, about 100 people work in Olafur Studio which is very impressive,
I wish I had the chance of working with him for a period of time, I do not like it as a permanent under the name of some one, even if that person is as intelligent as Olafur. Because it forms the direction of thought gradually which I don't like. 
I like to be an independent designer to have my own way of thinking. 
From the art works produced in Olafur studio I can guess he old such a dominant on the team, On the other hand Thomas Heatherwick, who also run an interdisciplinary studio , based in London, productions are so varied:
Designing buildings, furniture, and public transportation, the most notable of which are 
London buses. Architects, engineers, scientists, graphic designers, and so on work together within the studio. They design anything.



 A feast hosted by Thomas Heatherwick
Thomas Heatherwick is without a doubt, my favorite designer. He has done a wide range 
of work over the last two decades. Imagine you are invited for tea or coffee at a friend's place. when you get in, surprisingly, you find yourself at a big party like the Great Gatsby`s one. I believe his perspective on design differs significantly from that of other designers.
For example, when asked to design a car, he claims that on average, a car is stable for more than 20 hours per day. As a result, He designed a car that is appropriate for the time when the car is stationary.

Airo is unlike any other car because it not only does not pollute the air, but it also vacuums and filters it. Airo is more than just a car. Airo is not just a car. is a portal studio flat, you can sleep, and have dinner with friends. and even sleep.

"We are in an exciting period of teaching. 
We are nothing without deep connections, so places must bring people 
together in a special way and mean something." Thomas believes

We have lived in an exciting time because of the digital revolution that has occurred over
 the last two decades. Physical is becoming less important as all of the layers of the invention that have resulted from these digital new dimensions advance.
"There has been a platform to lift and create something even more significant to the
 physical." You can't get away with laziness any longer when you can buy things and study from home, so why would you go somewhere? You would not go there.
You would not go there unless it means something to your emotions. 
In the past, lazy places were made because you had to go there to buy bread or see a doctor now that you don’t have to, places should work harder.
In the case of education, institutions should bring students together to have extraordinary interaction otherwise they can stay home and stay in bed."
I believe one of the best of his jobs is the BEI-Teesside power plant 
the Biomass power plant. It is incredible, not only it is a pleasant place, no more bad smell, no more pollution, It is now one of the attractions of that city, it has a bar on top. it has a garden, it is an educational place for children as well. It is not open yet.
 biomass power plant covered in native grasses is a station organic waste material.
Thomas: "We used to be proud of the way we used to generate power. 
instead of decorating the building, it is an educational place, it has a social dimension. Instead of keeping people out, we pull them in." (Heatherwick,2020)
