In today’s society, the digitization of cultural heritage has become an inevitable norm. However, often when we talk about digitization, we mean the process of converting analog material into digital form. But how do we digitize cultural heritage that no longer physically exists? My focus in previous projects has been on the reconstruction of private spaces of famous figures, particularly historical interiors, presented through VR technology. This innovative method allows visitors to experience these spaces in a completely new way, often bringing the past to life in a way that was not possible before.
