Digital Heritage Lab,  MIT Architecture

MIT Digital Heritage Lab's AR Aalto exhibition was designed and developed by Professor Takehiko Nagakura. In collaboration with the Aalto Institute in Helsinki, the project produced an AR experience of Aalto's early work. This focused on the Aalto House in Helsinki. Visitors could inhabit sections of the house based on archival materials based on a 3D scan.
