META_Keysmith

"You can't just materialize anywhere in Metaverse, like Captain Kirk beaming down from on high."

META_KEYSMITH reimagines the landscape of architecture and interior design within the Metaverse, powered by Unreal Engine VR. This groundbreaking project ventures into post-apocalyptic and industrial design themes from the outset, painting a vivid narrative of environmental collapse through stark contrasts between natural and manufactured elements.

At its core, META_KEYSMITH employs SCI-Arc's Keck Hall as a base of reimagination for crafting an immersive transitional space that bridges the real with the virtual. It challenges the norms of digital entrance with a novel 3D 'puzzle' system, redefining the conventional login process. Through this blend of real-world inspiration and digital innovation, META_KEYSMITH navigates the intersection of reality and virtuality, exploring new aesthetics and experiences.
