Enquire Now
Using mixed reality technology, students step into a virtual environment to co-create a blueprint for a sustainable city of the future. Students design sustainable cities and explore the factors of liveability, climate change, resource scarcity, transport, and social issues, becoming change-makers in their communities.

Working in teams, they bring their city designs to life through 3D modelling software and immersive virtual reality. Each city is displayed through VR headsets and accessible on multiple devices, showcasing innovative ideas and practical solutions for a more sustainable and connected future.
