A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Virtual and Interactive Reality in Zaha Hadid’s Vitra Fire Station
The aim of the research was to analyze the project by Zaha Hadid’s Vitra Fire Station in Weil am Rhein using advanced and interactive representation. Built between 1990 and 1993, today the building is a space for temporary exhibitions. We choose it to understand its morphological complexity and to experiment some different interaction systems. To increase the credibility of the virtual environment, we applied seamless textures from photographs samples during the surveys to the 3D model. The Virtual Reality (VR) exploration includes the external context and the building interiors, where we have inserted textual and manual interactions of some works preserved in the exhibition area. We generated two levels of interaction of the scene: with keyboard and VR headset. These two ways allow users to navigate both using hands and walking around.
