Book vaults

This playful product is an AR bookshop experience created as an alternative to physical bookshops which were shut during Covid in 2020.

The bookshop is a combination of an online shop and Virtual Vaults, an AR/VR spatial experience embedded in the web browser. Me and my collaborator Jasper Stevens coded the interactions and the virtual architecture of the vaults and implemented them using A-frame, a web framework for building virtual reality.

Book Vaults are both an online shop and an AR bookshop experience - you can browse all available books from the comfort of your living room using the virtual vaults feature.

Pick up any book. The vaults architecture acts as virtual bookshelves, allowing the viewer to browse books without physically moving around the space.
