Daun Jung is an interior designer and spatial mediator based in London. Her work, spanning imagery, sculpture, and interior spaces, embodies her expansive vision of defining space. She poses practical and mediatory questions arising from the gap captured in the process of transforming non-material data into material space.
Having completed the RCA interior design program in 2023, she continues her journey as an interior designer at 'Brinkworth Design,' a London-based retail design agency.

The hotel is situated in 2033, a future society dominated by replication technologies such as 3D scanning and 3D printing. The hotel is founded on the hypothesis that the spatial legacy of Charleston House can be reappropriated through numerous digital replica fragments.
Bizarre spatial elements, such as pillow columns and fallen doors on the floor, visualize how these replicated fragments acquire identities in terms of use, size, and material as they undergo re-editing in the digital space, detached from their original context. Aura Hotel exemplifies the formation of peculiar and surreal spaces by inserting the digital fragments into new material contexts.
