Venice Unfolding connects large-scale geovisualizations with innovative interaction methods to display projects on architecture and their characteristics on a multitouch tabletop in a graspable way. It allows browsing these data interactively by selecting and filtering various metadata facets by tilting a physical object.

At the Interaction Design Lab, we consider visualization as one of our core competences. Our approach to visualization blends scientific information visualization with a unique understanding of form, interaction and usage. We believe that design principles and design thinking should be applied to the development of information and data visualizations.

MACE (Metadata for Architectural Contents in Europe) is a pan-european initiative to interconnect and disseminate digital information about architecture.
