"As adults, we are responsible for what happens to our children. In other words, we have the task of shaping the future of tomorrow." 
In order to shape the future of tomorrow, we must first recognise the problem.

On the one hand children are spending less and less time in nature. Experiencing nature promotes well-being, self-esteem and self-confidence in children. An intensive relationship with nature creates an ecological awareness at an early age. 
On the other hand parents' time is limited. Children often don't get
1:1 attention and a trip into nature is not feasible for everyone, despite good intentions. Plus there is a need for child-free time.
The solution to this problem is called Sufisa. A temporary place in the city that brings nature into the culture for children and gives adults a little break. Nature is suddenly within the childrens' reach and after visiting  Sufisa, experiences can be shared between parents and children, teasing excitement for the next trip to a forest.
The tracks are the medium used to convey the message, because tracks are everywhere. Sufisa is created under the motto "search, find and collect" (ger. suchen, finden, sammeln) traces .
