tunnel vision mask

designer rebecca lyddon was asked by the design museum, london to create a london city guide that broke
away from the norm. her response consisted of a series of masks that ‘explore the way that we learn and
gain a personal understanding from our surroundings’. she focused on the way we look at things and
designed twelve masks that each have a specific mode of looking. the user chooses a mask to wear in a
location of the city and their experience is influenced by the mask’s mode of seeing. this includes a fisheye
mask, wide angle mask, tunnelvision mask and a perforated mask amongst others. here you can see some
of the masks, how they are worn and what it looks like to wear them.
