Summary

The start of a unique and future-facing method of proposal, Fas used VR to approach the tradition from a different perspective. Sabrina traveled through a VR reimagining of one of her favorite scenes from The Notebook, able to select pop-ups of her most cherished memories with Fas.

Through the use of interactive VR, Sabrina took an active role in the process of the proposal, spending the most time in events that were most special to her. After Sabrina had spent enough time in the VR world, she was brought back to the real world, where Fas made a heartfelt speech to her and made his proposal.

Design Identity
For hundreds of years, lovers have worked hard to create beautiful proposals. They have been able to invoke emotions and help their partner to recall their most meaningful moments together. However, proposers have never been able to make their partners actively relive their past experiences. By using VR and AR technology, Fas’ proposal to Sabrina was truly unique, by physically bringing her back to their most memorable moments together.
