Project Description

Our project explores the themes of infinity and the limits of human understanding, inspired by Jorge Luis Borges’ “The Library of Babel.”

The visual and world setting draws from the novel, creating a vast, labyrinthine library that symbolizes the infinite universe and the paradoxes within it.

To enhance this experience, we’ve designed our own version of the library’s architecture, created a custom font that embodies the Babel worldview, and carefully embedded details and visual cues to deepen immersion.

The movement within the piece reflects an endless loop, symbolizing the infinite nature of the story.
