HYPERSPACES™ city modeling & 3D graphics
in a world in which more dimensions than commonly perceived are theorized, time and space - although at different scales - are expanded and contracted like a vibration. presence and synchrony are dissolved in a system of relationships. and in the relationship amongst places hyperspaces are configured.
the graphic representation is the naive attempt to describe the complexity of space in an instant through an optical illusion. an illusion that, within the game of variables, generates knowledge, sharing and interaction.
Hyperspaces™ - City Modeling & 3D Graphics is a team specialist in the digital representation of reality. Ensuring the highest standards of innovation and precision, it provides photorealistic engineering products in 3D reproducing from individual objects to entire cities. It works in the field of territorial planning, cultural development and the marketing of the territory and architectural heritage and monuments. Hyperspaces™ is a multidisciplinary team of engineers, architects, programmers, developers, graphic experts in 3D modeling and 3D laser scans with a close relationships with Universities and Research Centers. Its heterogeneity allows integrated and complex solutions applied to the fields of architectural design, graphic and multimedia Web applications. Instrumentation and advanced skills of Hyperspaces™ made possible a collaboration with Californian Google Inc.: an example of integration to Google Earth 3D demo
of an historic district (Villanova in Cagliari) with high-definition photorealistic graphic at the street level. An innovative and accessible solution of international importance for the promotion and enhancement of the architectural, historical and cultural heritage of the city. Due to its innovative nature, it established partnerships with several companies in the local market orientated to tourism and culture and promotion of the architectural heritage: Buccellato s.r.l., Charming Sardinia s.r.l., Space s.p.a. The team works together with several external consultants in marketing and calls, fiscal and legal activities and Intellectual Property.
The digital reproduction of reality and graphic communications are the activities Hyperspaces™. From the single object to the entire building until the urban and territorial level, engineering and photorealism find their mening. A completeness that, according to the needs and objectives of the client, is also found in the search for cheaper solutions and appropriate in the wide range of Hyperspaces™ products. The representation of reality in fact originates from innovative photographic techniques (Hypertour, HyperObject), then switches to 3D laser scanning and 3D plots of objects or buildings (HyperScan) until you get to the 3D modeling of buildings (HyperModel) or entire cities (HyperCity). Hyperspaces™ not only reproduces reality, but unveils its techniques through teaching activities (HyperTeach) and studies the changes of the territory through the activity of architectural and urban design (HyperProject ). All products Hyperspaces™ are technical tools with high resolution photorealistic
output recognizable even at inexperienced eye, but also high-precision engineering products. These tools would be ineffective if not appropriately communicated. In compliance with the standards the Hyperspaces™ team has studied integrated solutions with graphical interfaces that make their products accessible in 3D real-time as in videogames, measurable and accessible on the web or multimedia. All with a common graphic design, innovative and consistent up to the last detail, also supported by video editing and soundtracks produced internally. As a technical or pure illustration tool, the representation of reality is open to testing, understanding and promotion of an area as a whole and its peculiarities. The interlocutors of Hyperspaces™ fall in the areas: - Engineering as for the control: design, restoration, planning, GIS, environmental impact, public institutions, infrastructure and services/urban underground utilities; - Cultural in relation to knowledge: enhancement and protection of identity and landscape, archaeological finds, workshops,
virtual access to objects not physically accessible, museum exhibits, virtual tours, identification of routes; - Local marketing concerning promotion: visibility for accommodation and commercial activities of the territory.
HyperCity
HyperCity is the flagship product of Hyperspaces™. Consists of photorealistic 3D modeling of reality on territorial and urban scale. Mainly referring to the Historic Centres and respectful of the privacy legislation in force, HyperCity is the result of complex calculations of photogrammetric maps and photographic surveys in high resolution and street-level of the facades of the buildings. It is a technical device with an accuracy of centimeters usable and measurable in real time, integrated with links to many external resource and published in the international showcase of Google Earth. From the HyperCity products various elaborations are derived: from the profiles for road used to rule and plan interventions on facades (e.g. Concerning the color of the facades in the historic centers, maximum heights of buildings, identifying architectural styles) to the census and reproduction of urban facilities: parking, street furniture, public lighting, the identification of degraded buildings that need renovation and static consolidation, to the simulation of
changes to the area for environmental impact assessments, identifying the characteristics of tourism and culture, etc.. The main works performed by HyperCity cover the historical center of Cagliari (CA), Olbia (OT), San Pantaleo (OT) of Berchiddeddu (OT) and township of Marceddì (OR) to products useful for planning and services. It should be noted the collaboration with Google Inc. for publication on the Google Earth 3D demo of the historic district of Villanova in Cagliari.
HyperTour HyperModel HyperScan HyperTour, HyperModel e HyperScan are different solutions to the same request: to represent in a comprehensive way the interior and / or exterior of existing buildings, archaeological areas, caves and environments of different size. The chose of the type of product depends on the characteristics of the place and purpose of the client. Hypertour is the solution for purely illustrative purposes for a place. Consists of virtual tours
produced from high-resolution photos at 360° connected to each other through to the use of hotspots. HyperModel is the solution of compromise between Hypertour and HyperScan. It provides the photorealistic 3D modeling of the requested subject from its measurement and photography. It is a technical device with an accuracy of few centimeters and it is more suitable for an advanced description of a good architectural quality. In the case of buildings or building complexes in progress, HyperModel will result from the elaboration of plans, elevations, sections and design details. HyperScan is the most rigorous solution of Hyperspaces™ in technical terms and more suited to scientific purposes. Consists of photorealistic 3D laser scanning of a place. With pinpoint accuracy is the best solution in the case of sites of great morphological complexity and architectural heritage of particular value with no preexisting topographic survey.
Hypertour , HyperModel and HyperScan are usable and measurable in real time, integrated with links to any external resource and Web publishing. HyperScan products can be physically reproduced in 3D through scaled copies of the object with related textures through plotter 3D. The main work cover the Nuragic area of Barumini (MC), the Cathedral of St. Mary’s, the Church of Sant’Efisio and the Basilica of San Saturnino in Cagliari (CA), the original status of the Roman theatre and fortification walls of Cagliari (CA) in different historical periods, planning activities for new residences in Sestu (CA) and for the restoration of housing units in Cagliari (CA). Interventions that fall into the training activities at Masters on Cultural Heritage in support activities to research and restoration of Cultural Heritage, and creation of digital content to support museum communication.
HyperProject
Hyperspaces™ does not only represent the reality but provides its own solutions to the protection and development of the territory. HyperProject is the Hyperspaces™’s section that carries out architectural and urban landscape and housing research and design. The design approach is based on two main aspects: the integration between architecture and landscape on one side and the search for the raison d’être of any other specific project, to enable effective adaptation to the context of the contemporary city on the other side. The main work HyperProject have been awarded and the quality of proposals in local and international competitions has been recognized. Within those results, the requalification of the hydraulic and urban situation of Segariu (second prize) can be mentioned or as well the design of an urban area in De Sphinx quartier in Maastricht (Europan 10, mentioned) or the study of modular housing units in Athens (upto35). In addition to the design of various housing interventions (Vallermosa) HyperProject
develops projects in the cultural and exhibition fields. The project shared network of cultural sites Cagliari (City as a museum. Museum as a system) is a project that the Municipality of Cagliari intends to achieve within the ‘cultural district’ (PG4-AP2) Strategic Plan, with the involvement of all levels of government by the municipality to the Ministry of Culture. In the field of exhibition design is reported the Identity of the Multimedia Museum ‘Città dell’Impresa’ in Cagliari.
Hyperspaces™’s headquarter is in Cagliari. Has a branch in Rotterdam. The working network is distributed across Europe. From Cagliari to Milan, from Rotterdam to Salamanca, the team operates in a coordinated manner via web reducing physical barriers and maximizing productivity. This, however, without sacrifi cing the physical meetings considered essential from an organizational point of view. The external expertises and partnerships further amplify Hyperspaces™ range.
