VR Historical Environments

The project consists of four distinct environments, each with its own leading character.

Every protagonist delivers the historical narration within the exact setting and period in which the event takes place.

Visual Design & Art Direction

The visual style of the VR experience follows a theatrical scenography approach, using cut-outs from historical photographs and collage techniques to construct each scene.

Archival images are reassembled into layered compositions, creating a unique aesthetic that bridges history, illustration, and immersive storytelling.

VR Navigation & User Experience

The experience begins in a central introductory scene, where a voice-over presents the four key historical chapters of the VR immersion. Through an interactive VR menu, users can choose which story environment they want to enter.

Once inside each environment, they are free to explore at their own pace, using interactive teleport points to move quickly between selected narrative locations and navigate the experience intuitively.

3D Characters & Narrative

To strengthen the storytelling experience, four main 3D characters were designed for the VR scenes.

Each character represents a key historical figure connected to the specific event and narrates the story from their own perspective.
