Gaia Tower

Mariana Cabugueira in collaboration with Wilder World designed Gaia Tower. This Tower completes the third Island Chain part of the Trinity Islands Project. The Trinity Islands are a genesis project, part of the city of Wiami, a Web3 virtual city that Wilder World is currently building.

Named Gaia, after the Greek goddess of the Earth, its design predicts nature conquering man-built structures. All three islands are fully public and made for Community Building, they are projected as a refuge for virtual Peace and Serenity. The gameplay and Web3 development that is in progress aim for the High-Fidelity experience of space through hyper-realistic space-rendering and space navigation. High-fidelity design in web3 spaces enhances the immersive experience of virtual reality.

Parenthetically, If you are curious to dive deeper into designing virtual cities and cyber-urban environments, you can check the Meta-Fluid Studio 2.0 – Mariana Cabugueira by PAACADEMY.

Wilder World is a virtual reality experience. The Wilder World platform is comprised of Ethereum, Unreal Engine 5, and Zero. Multiple systems come together to create a new dimension of reality in a 5D, photorealistic experience that is fully decentralized and community-owned, with 100% of ecosystem profits going to citizens.
