The work
Together with Innocean, we developed an AR app for Anne Frank House, taking visitors on an empathetic journey to learn the struggles of those facing intolerance.
Supporting the #DontHateEducate campaign, we created an AR model of Anne’s bookcase to act as a portal into the rooms and lives of five adolescents and their varying experiences with discrimination.
Using photogrammetry, a spatial scanning technique, we rendered their rooms into immersive digital environments. Taking digital folders from the bookcase, guests can listen to the stories of Anne, Majd, Kuei, Dalit and Mees, engage with their spaces and explore personal objects.
