City Visualization

The app invites visitors to take bricks of various types and place, move and remove them over the map of Košice, Slovakia. Consequently, the placement of a brick triggers changes in the urban economy of the city, visualized in the projection. For example, after placing park bricks onto the map, a park icon appears in the visualization and the living conditions of the particular area will improve, indicated by changes in the small icons across the city.
