Today I stopped by Mercer Labs @mercer.labs and finally checked out their immersive rooms. It’s such a creative space — light, sound, and technology all mixed together in one place. And now that the weather is getting colder, it’s actually the perfect time to visit and enjoy something indoors without rushing.

If you haven’t been yet, it’s located at

21 Dey Street, New York, NY 10007.

Worth adding to your NYC list this season.
