Research Question:
How can New-to-Germany foreigners be prepared to deal with typical obstacles of German culture?



Moving to Germany? Learn the German ways as soon as touching down into this land of rules, beer, and bratwurst: Immerse yourself in the cultural mosaic of different rooms designed to help you decode the German way. Escape the rooms by familiarising yourself with local protocol and conquer the learning curve with each new challenge.
Why do I need this, you ask? There are lots of rules here and you need to be aware of them, so hang on tight. From Sunday etiquette to bike lane’s do’s and don’ts, this is your crash course in mastering the art of living in Deutschland!
The interactive prototype of the real-world escape room was created in Bezi 3D.
'The German Experience' was exhibited at Berlin Design Week 2024.
