The project highlighted the special character of these vernacular sites, and the intrinsic spatiality and architectural quality, daily experienced by their inhabitants. 3DPAST brought the opportunity to discover the ‘spirit of place’ of vernacular dwell ings, across Europe. The project aimed to attract new audiences to these properties, through AR experi ence in books, a Platform, and a in situ Mobile App (3DPAST is available to download at App store and Google Play).
