Collections sit in drawers
Photos, documents and recordings exist, but nobody outside the team can see them.
Heritage digitization and digital archives
We build places on the web where collections, memories and the stories of places are organized, described and available to everyone.
Who it is for
When it makes sense
The history of a place is disappearing
You want to record witnesses’ accounts and show them with photographs and a map.
An exhibition should live longer
The display ends, but its content should stay available online.
