FIELD 8: MATRIXPORT METAVERSE HQ
Cryptovoxels.com
2021
The virtual HQ for crypto exchange Matrixport is located in the Cryptovoxels Metaversse.
The virtual building is designed decentrally using generative algorithms, echoing the spirit of the decentralized blockchains and constantly changing crypto world. We created 3 series of forms using growth parameters, instead of a single finite determined by the author.
The schemes also took advantage of three unique properties of the virtual space. Firstly, the freeze form generated from the series is envisioned to change from time to time based on the content of the building, adding to the constant flux of the crypto world. This would have been difficult in the physical world. Secondly, there is no gravity, making floating form possible. Finally, there is additional navigation experience through flying and teleporting.
