In a world of constant acceleration, digital overstimulation and endless optimisation, BREATHE WITH ME — SOFT RESET invites us to rediscover something profoundly human: the ability to slow down, feel, wonder and simply be.
What if the most radical thing we could do today was simply to pause?
Created by Swiss-born, New York-based multidisciplinary artist Annabelle Schneider, this immersive, multisensory installation transforms The Peak Galleria in Hong Kong into a breathing sanctuary — a temporary portal between the intensity of urban life and a softer, more intuitive world.
An inhabitable, sculptural landscape of gently expanding and contracting textile forms, SOFT RESET blurs the boundaries between architecture, art and the human body. Abstract blossoms dissolve across its soft surfaces, somewhere between nature and the artificial. Light, sound, scent and touch come together in a carefully composed sensory environment that feels both futuristic and strangely familiar, like a distant childhood memory.

Visitors are invited to remove their shoes, step inside, find their own cocoon and surrender to the experience. To lie down, look up, listen and reconnect with their senses. There is nothing to achieve, no prescribed way to participate. Only the freedom to be curious, vulnerable and present.
First conceived in New York in 2024, BREA has since evolved across international contexts, continuously changing its form, scale and sensory expression. Each iteration explores how physical spaces can create moments of emotional connection, wonder and renewed awareness.
At its heart, SOFT RESET questions what it means to remain human in an increasingly artificial and optimised world. It celebrates softness not as weakness, but as a powerful form of awareness, courage and discernment.
Nothing blooms all the time. Neither can we.
SOFT RESET is not an escape from the future, but an invitation to reclaim our presence within it. A moment to breathe, reconnect and return to the world with a renewed sense of possibility.

The future is not only something we design. It is something we must remember to feel.
