Feel Ukraine by Touch: 3D Models of Lviv’s Architecture for People with Visual Impairments

Project Objective:


To make Ukraine’s architectural heritage accessible to people with visual impairments through 3D modeling and printing.

 

Key Project Stages:

 

  • Create high-precision 3D models of seven iconic architectural landmarks of Lviv: the Lviv State Circus, the House of Organ and Chamber Music, the monuments to Adam Mickiewicz and Ivan Franko, the Latin Cathedral, the Church of the Ascension of Christ, and the Gunpowder Tower.

  • Prepare the models for printing with consideration of tactile perception specifics.

  • Produce physical copies of the architectural objects using 3D printing.

  • Organize a presentation for children and adults with visual impairments.

  • Deliver the 3D models to the NGO Ukrainian Union of People with Disabilities (USI) for further use.
