Utzon's studio as a collaborative virtual environment

Published: 03 December 2007 Publication History

Abstract

In order to investigate the design of virtual place for creative collaboration, I have modeled scenes from a real place of creative collaboration - Jørn Utzon's studios, which embody a number of principles of design for real creative place. From this vantage point we may begin to draw conclusions about which elements of that place are important for creative collaboration, and how the qualities of those elements may be transported into collaborative virtual environments (CVEs).
