VRcollaborationresearch

A themed virtual collaboration space created with Joe Ravetz. Designed around the elements (earth, air, fire, water), it hosted workshops and meetings for over five years before being redeveloped in FrameVR.

The concept

The Collaboratarium was more than a meeting space — it was a designed environment where the architecture itself reflected themes of collaboration, natural systems and transformation.

Use

For five years, it served as a meeting ground for research teams, hosting discussions on infrastructure futures, systems thinking and collaborative planning.

Evolution

The project has since been redeveloped in FrameVR, maintaining the core concept while adapting to new platform capabilities.
