3D Immersive Exhibition
I developed an innovative 3D interactive exhibition, a virtual space where viewers could immerse themselves in various furniture pieces' exquisite beauty and craftsmanship. This digital showcase focused extensively on the Ming and Qing dynasty furniture, providing an insightful exploration of their profound influence on contemporary furniture design. The virtual layout allowed audiences to navigate through different rooms at their leisure, with the ability to click on individual furniture items to access detailed information. This dynamic approach enhanced viewer engagement and played a crucial role in preserving and appreciating ancient Chinese culture. By sharing in-depth knowledge and insights, the exhibition fostered greater cultural awareness and appreciation.
