Rooted in the physical world, pervaded by artificial intelligence Conceived as the natural evolution of the Phyd.com platform, PHYD is structured into a gamified journey, in order to increase the engagement and user experience. A pervasive artificial intelligence invades physical spaces, generating an alternate reality environment dedicated to professional growth and continuous learning. Perforated sheet metal surfaces, copper, concrete and polycarbonate, they all root the experience in the physical world, while the digital layer engages users and enhances the experience with dynamics of self-quantification, rewards and human connections. An experiential journey for building the best possible future Called The Greatest Adventure. You, the design concept is inspired by alternate reality games and develops into an experiential journey that is divided in four moments-areas: Start PHYD, Training, Connection and Food.
