Our aim was to present our ideas and concepts to our audience, our stakeholders in person as we walked through the district. An experience to navigate through our findings of our 10 week research on the ‘Starland District’.

We decided to present through the medium of VR and bought to aid some VR Cardboard glasses for a tour of the district. As we walked from one destination to the other, our objective of presenting an authentic sensory experience was being met. Our stakeholders experienced the problems we uncovered through our reseach and as the tour proceeded and we explained our thoughts and conclusions to them, things started to fall into perspective. The VR device helped us present our ideas and concepts in real time and space. This gave our stakeholders an opportunity to experience the change and potential we saw on site. The transformation of certain places with better lighting needs and a place to sit and rest for example, are simple changes that we think that will help change people’s perception of safty in the neighborhood as well as bring about some positive energy and sense of community.
