Five Famous Architectural Projects in Virtual Reality

What would have happened if some of the most influential architects in history had used virtual reality to visualize their famous projects?

Although it is hard to imagine because we only have photos, some sketches, and technical drawings, there is some exciting news: now it is possible to walk through


In the SketchUp Warehouse or Revit Gallery, you will find thousands of 3D models uploaded by users which allow us to download them, edit, add textures and export with our adjustments.


Besides, with SENTIO VR you can use the SketchUp or Revit plugins and upload directly your 3D models to our platform for visualizing in virtual reality using your Oculus Go, Oculus Quest, and Gear VR glasses.


After talking to some friendly architects from Sao Paulo, New York and Santiago, I have made a list of 5 emblematic projects that would be amazing to see in virtual reality. I hope you enjoy it!

As someone who's always been fascinated by the intersection of architecture and technology, I'm thrilled to see your interest in famous architectural projects in virtual reality! This convergence brings the impossible to life, and it's nothing short of magical argentics.

A little story from my end, I once used a VR headset at a tech expo and was blown away by how it transported me into an entirely different world. I was walking through the halls of a grand castle, then strolling along a sunny beach, all without leaving the expo center! It's this exact magic that makes VR architectural projects so captivating.
