The Sphere

Wed Jul 19 2022

This architecture visualization project materializes a vision of China’s first 360° panoramic metaverse experience center, the MS Sphere of Shaoxing. 



The Sphere invites audience to embark on a speculation into the future, where cutting-edge technology merges seamlessly with immersive entertainment. Projected functions for the sphere includes these few, among many: Music Concert Venue, Sporting Events, Interior LED Content Display, Exterior LED Commercial Display and Technology Educational Center.



We received a brief to conceptualize and visualize the sphere and its surrounding area - for the project lead to pitch to city governors, developers and architects. While the cityscape can be constructed from Google Earth data and existing geographical material, the sphere is only brought to life thanks to Unreal Engine's real-time environmental magic.
