Envisioning the Future
Define and build tomorrow's architectural spaces with the help of Design Ficton and Science Fiction methodologies combined with Extended Reality. Explore our research, learn about new products, and come along as we discuss architectural design and the way people will live in the future.
A DESIGN FICTION FRAMEWORK
What is FictionXR?
The FictionXR framework is integrated into a web-based platform called AllegoryXR. The framework provides tools for designers to envision and create future scenarios within architectural spaces. It combines storytelling with technology, allowing users to immerse themselves in the environments they create. The platform supports AR and VR experiences, making your designs more interactive and engaging.
Research Updates
FictionXR Private Beta Release
Expert tests started with the release of the FictionXR Private Beta in July 2024. We invite all experts working in Design Fiction, Science Fiction Prototyping and Extended Reality areas to join our tests.

Beyond the screen: A glimpse into the future of UX
Imagine a world where technology isn’t just an observer of your reality, but an active participant. Picture yourself using Apple’s ‘Vision Pro’, a monument of innovation that takes an unprecedented leap into the future of spatial computing. Instead of merely observing the digital world, we’re living in it, interacting with it, and shaping it.

Our tools shape our selves
It has become almost impossible to separate the effects of digital technologies from our everyday experiences. Reality is parsed through glowing screens, unending data feeds, biometric feedback loops, digital protheses and expanding networks that link our virtual selves to satellite arrays in geostationary orbit. Wristwatches interpret our physical condition by counting steps and heartbeats.
