The thoughts I wanted to work with when creating the final project for unit 1.2 were:
- Keeping the plants as a whole, Treating every illustration/plant as a single unit that has its own qualities
- Collecting those “single units” into selected groups sorted by colours
- Collecting “single units = plants” that were sorted into groups into one whole collection
- Allowing people to interact with all three “subgroups” separately but also together
- Experimenting with digital form
For the final outcome, I selected 50 colours sorted from the Digital Botanical Harvard Collection. I set the Flowers 3D space to create a digital garden as an augmented reality experience, allowing the viewer to interact with the collection, being able to focus on details, a single plant separated flower beds or see the collection together, almost as one big garden. Find below a video of an interaction with the garden in a 3D space. It is also possible to place the garden into space as augmented reality.
