The team explored multiple software and service options to best adapt to the changing standards of presentation, deciding that Unity and custom programming were the most sensible and intuitive. This space is intended to be a bridge between the familiar "in-person" review structure and the new territory of online instruction. Details such as HVAC and stacked chairs were added to reduce the sterile characteristics of a virtual space while reminding users of space's qualities. 

Tulane School of Architecture switched to remote education in the middle of March due to COVID-19. The team used a pre-existing 3D scan of the space to produce the accurate dimensional digital model. Matterport scan by Victor Garcia.
