The House by the Railroad


2017

A virtual reality experience inspired by the paintings of Edward Hopper. An American painter whose active years were from 1882 to 1967. His paintings were focused on isolation and loneliness, which is one of the themes we tried to capture in this story-driven experience. Inspired by the ‘House by the Railroad’ painting which portrays a Victorian house in a desolate environment, near a railroad.
The player is spawned in an environment based on one of Edward Hoppers famous paintings "House by the Railroad". Curiosity induces the player to explore and by doing so, the player activates new chapters of the story.
