Digital Labyrinth by Ysabel Moulders reimagines the Korean PC Bang as an immersive interior design project. The proposal turns a familiar gaming environment into a more social, colourful and spatially layered experience.
The project is interesting because it treats digital culture as an architectural brief. It asks how people gather, focus, compete, retreat and play in a shared interior built around technology.
Rethinking the PC Bang
Traditional PC Bangs are often dark, dense and inward-looking. Ysabel uses the thesis to test a different model, with zones for different kinds of play and social behaviour.
- Extreme Play supports high-intensity gaming and e-sports.
- Collective Play creates space for shared experience.
- Scattered Play gives quieter users more adaptable nooks.
- Leisure and Retro Play add variety beyond rows of screens.
Why immersive design needs structure
Colour, lighting and form can make an interior feel exciting, but they need a clear spatial logic. The strongest part of the project is the attempt to organise different user behaviours rather than simply making the space visually intense.
That is useful for portfolio work too. If a project is about digital culture, the drawings should explain how the physical room changes because of that culture.

Make digital space spatially clear
If you submit an immersive or digital project, show the human behaviour behind the visual style.
- Name the user groups and activities.
- Explain the zones and movement through the space.
- Use technology as context, not as a substitute for architecture.
- Show how the physical interior supports digital culture.
