Virtual Spaces
Digital and hybrid environments that blend virtual and physical spaces, from workplaces to arenas and immersive installations.
Virtual spaces encompass designed environments that exist partially or entirely in digital form, as well as physical structures built to facilitate virtual interaction. These spaces challenge traditional notions of location and presence, creating new possibilities for work, leisure, and community.
The community explores futuristic workplaces and arenas, phygital institutes that merge digital and physical realms, responsive environments that interact with users, and co-living structures. Projects range from e-sport venues and virtual offices to adaptive spaces and vertical ecosystems.
