This mixed reality app offers a playful introduction to the potential of upcycling in architecture. The immersand is invited to build new architectures with 20:1 models of formwork designed for the construction site Stuttgart 21 - while experiencing them physically in real size.

It is also a study in using new technologies to foster embodied approaches to design and thinking in movement.

VR [...] allows intuitive realtime modulation of spatial and physical relationships, which opens up completely new design perspectives. The hope is that the focus could shift [...] away from viewing the design as a model and anticipation of a future, final structural appearance, towards the process of designing itself as a performative and transformative practice.
