Hello! I’m excited to share my second entry.

Hardin: Seasonal Terrarium

A stylized, interactive terrarium that captures the passage of time through four seasonal states—Growth (Summer & Spring), Fall, Winter, and Night—using soft, low-poly forms and gentle, atmospheric animation. The piece emphasizes calm, tactile interaction: clicking the tree or ground triggers subtle, responsive behaviors (falling leaves and snow, blooming or closing flowers), while environmental elements like a flowing or frozen river reinforce each scene’s mood. Night introduces bioluminescent fireflies and resting flora, adding contrast and quiet. Ambient soundscapes further immerse the viewer, with optional audio tied to each state.

Designed as both a contemplative visual and an exploratory object, the terrarium can be viewed inside or outside its glass case and rotated freely, inviting users to engage from multiple perspectives. It works well as an interactive art piece, a meditative digital experience, or a showcase of responsive environmental storytelling.
