Project Details

AURA is an innovative augmented reality application that redefines how clients, architects, and builders interact during the design process. By enabling real-time visualization of lighting effects within physical spaces, AURA enhances decision-making and enriches the design experience.


Drawing from my architectural background, I conceptualized AURA to address a long-standing challenge, bridging the gap between conceptual design and tangible outcomes.


The application seamlessly integrates AR technology, offering users an intuitive and immersive way to evaluate how lighting choices impact the ambiance of a room.
