How do we keep stories alive and resonant in a fast-moving digital world? Leigh Sachwitz, Founder and Principal of the award-winning studio flora&faunavisions, believes the answer lies in emotionally-driven, immersive design. In this futurespaces session, she’ll explore how technology can be used, not just to captivate but to connect, preserve, and pass on stories to new generations.

Drawing on four significant projects — namely, The Ring Cycle, Genius: Da Vinci, Utopian Garden, and Flying Apsarus — Leigh will share how her team uses  immersive storytelling, interdisciplinary collaboration, and digital innovation. Each project is a case study in designing emotion-led experiences that sit on the forefront of technological advancement.

Attendees can expect a deep dive into Leigh and her team’s process, along with fresh insights into the future of narrative design, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the power of technology to keep human stories front and centre in a digital world.
