Marsh's Library VR Environment

This project aims to create an immersive experience that emulates visiting the Marsh’s Library in Dublin for visitors unable to visit the site in person. This virtual environment was developed in Unity for the Oculus Quest 2.

When creating this virtual environment, I wanted to ensure that the design of the UI reflected the library's sophistication and warmth. This influenced my typeface selection, icon design and textbox UI.

I also wanted to ensure a comfortable reading experience, such as testing the distance of the UI from the user, and the volume and size of the text. I felt this was important, as VR can be eye-straining for long-term usage.
