In 2014, the Australian exhibition at the Venice Architecture Biennale will be Augmented Australia 1914–2014 by creative team felix._Giles_Anderson+Goad, bringing modern and historical unrealized Australian projects to life through three-dimensional augmented models, images, voice-overs and animations. Responding to Biennale director Rem Koolhaas’s theme of one hundred years’ of modernity, the exhibition will comprise eleven historical designs, eleven unbuilt public buildings by contemporary architects and the new Australian Pavilion by Denton Corker Marshall, which will be under construction.
The exhibition will be constructed around augmented reality, activated with an app for smart devices. Visitors will be able to point their smart phone at the trigger images to open up a catalogue of virtual material allowing them to visualise, walk through and admire the scale and greatness of each project.
