Their work received a lot of international media attention and become the "hot-pick" for many instagrammers.

"BOUNCE" is an immersive and interactive installation designed by SNARKITECTURE,which is building a large "stadium" situated along the Hong Kong waterfront. To investigate the boundaries between art and architecture,this time they are using the concept of "bouncy ball" to create a surreal interactive playground. The visitors are invited to roll,lift and toss hundreds of enlarged 300%,1-meter diameter white "bouncy ball" in the outdoor stadium. The stadium is also an iconic cage structure defined by a series of white steel frames. The nature of the public art installation encourages visitors to create their own unique playing experiences.
