Traces and memories of the elegance, intimacy, love, friendship, joy and fun of the Bánffy Castle dance ballrooms - brought to another dimension.
A glimpse of the magic of the waltz translated into a place of meeting and socializing through music and dance. The dance floor carpet, was placed in the public outdoor space of the castle, which through the instructions of the waltz steps and the sounds of one of Miklós Bánffy's musical compositions (played with a QR code), invites visitors to a different experience of the present and the past.
