Our guest on The XR MAG Show for today is the Co-founder and Head of Product at Arkio. Arkio is a new collaborative tool to design buildings, urban plans, and interiors together using VR, desktop, or even mobile devices. Arkio has quickly positioned itself as one of the best tools available to Import 3D models, try out new design ideas together, build amazing spaces, and export your work back as native Unity, Revit, Rhino, or SketchUp geometry.

Meet Johan Hanegraaf, With a background in architecture, and engineering, and +10 years experience of working on design technology solutions for bespoke projects at Mecanoo, Johan is taking us on a journey on how Arkio was initially conceptualized, why designing in 3d makes more sense in VR, and their ups and downs along the journey. 

These are some of the highlights of this episode:

1. How design is evolving in a spatial dimension
2. What are the advantages of designing in VR
3. The landscape of architecture with emerging technologies
4. Their own design workflow, main challenges, and how they overcame them
