The intention behind the design of the Bororo game system was to bring the atmosphere of an Amazonian tree village closer to child visitors. We did not aim for an exact imitation or reconstruction of a specific pattern of an indigenous hut from the depths of the rainforest. Instead, we extracted characteristic features and situations from the theme that give similar structures a distinct character. Hanging structures, glimpses into the depths, the intricacy of a tree canopy labyrinth, surprising details of masks, and fetishes of unknown rituals. For the child's perspective, we drew from our own memories and experiences. From this range of elements, we then assembled our version of Bororo. We believe that the resulting expressive expression and strong physical stimulation will leave more room for visitors to initiate their own imagination.
