End-of-Year Exhibition 2021, Department of Architecture, University of Nicosia
ARC VR 2021
The ARC VR 2021 end-of-year exhibition presents a response to COVID-19 and the consequent cancellation of the most important and anticipated yearly event of the department.
The virtual space hosting the exhibition is an identical copy of the Department facility; an award-winning renovated and repurposed shoe factory. The building and the exhibition were purposely modelled by students and faculty of the Department of Architecture at the University of Nicosia utilising complex and novel software workflows. The outcome, a VR-ready 3D online world, provided the framework for applying cutting edge CAD technologies and presents a challenging case study for architectural education.
The ARC VR 2021 exhibition is dedicated to the memory of Dr Stavros Vergopoulos
