UrbanAR

An Augmented Reality Design Tool for Urban Design and Planning

About UrbanAR

We want to make the urban design and planning process of our cities more fun and engaging: to make our cities more of a collaborative effort and better for everyone. Currently, municipalities are using old methods to get input from citizens, but we can change that!

That’s why we set out to create UrbanAR. An intuitive app in which you can design your dream neighbourhood, a new park or crazy art piece - all right in front of you using augmented reality. The app also allows you to share your ideas with the world! Compete in contests and get inspired by others!

We tested the app with numerous people, and there is one constant: it’s so much fun!
