Experience, explain, decide: an IX stakeholder participation framework Good intentions sometimes get lost in translation, and positive ideas can end up framed negatively. The flexible IX stakeholder participation framework reinvents communication. This framework can serve as an AR model with projections that bring concepts to life, or as a 3D visualisation on a traditional screen in a community centre. It cuts through miscommunication, transforms the way ideas are shared, connects with others, and delivers real impact.

SimCityScope
SimCityScope: virtual experience and coordination of urban disruption and construction phasing SimCityScope is an interactive process, including a tool, that lets residents, business owners and policymakers experience building projects and other neighbourhood changes virtually before they happen. Through VR, AR or a screen, you see not just the end result but also the planning, temporary closures and possible disruption. This creates more understanding, engagement and better collaboration before construction begins. The project helps municipalities and other parties make better decisions on urban development together with residents.
Stad in Beeld
Stad in Beeld – A participatory digital twin for future-proof urban development In this project, Webbio B.V. is investigating the feasibility of a participatory digital twin, specifically for the municipality of Nijmegen. The focus is on combining spatial data, policy information and interactive visualisation via webXR. The aim of the participatory digital twin is to make policy choices visually clear and to give residents an accessible way to get involved. In this phase, Webbio is working with the municipality of Nijmegen and two specialised technology partners to build a working proof of concept focused on one specific neighbourhood. This will validate technical feasibility, user interaction, data connections and policy integration.
Placemaking Immersive
Stipo and Orb Amsterdam are exploring how to turn physical participation tools for urban development into a digital, immersive application. Using virtual and mixed reality, they're investigating how citizens, policymakers and developers can gain better insight into the coherence and impact of spatial planning decisions. The envisioned IX solution makes participation more accessible and allows different stakeholders to give feedback from their own perspective and engage in co-creation. This helps improve decision-making, prevent unwanted side effects and build broader public support for complex urban challenges — think housing, sustainability and accessibility.
Urban Prototype Station
Urban Prototype Station: Through Our Eyes Urban Prototype Station: Through Our Eyes is a mixed reality platform that reduces the negative effects of urban development by combining 3D city models, storytelling through volumetric video of local residents, and open data. The platform visualises the impact of construction projects at 3 functional scale levels: • bird's-eye view (1:500) for tabletop project discussions; • neighbourhood scale (1:50) for Madurodam-style area visualisation; • street level (1:1) for real-size viewing in the actual environment. It brings personal stories, such as residents' experiences of nuisance, directly into the design process through lifelike holograms. The platform provides a communication channel between decision-makers and residents, allowing plans to be visualised, residents to give direct feedback, and alternative implementation scenarios to be simulated in order to minimise nuisance.
Stad op het Spel
Stad op het Spel lets decision-makers in urban development experience the impact of their choices and collaboration first-hand. In this interactive experience, they engage in conversation with people from a future city scenario. These conversations reveal what abstract policy dilemmas and design choices actually mean for everyday life. Playing the game opens up space for empathy, reflection and better conversations. In doing so, it contributes - in an accessible and thought-provoking way - to more human-centred policy, more effective ways of working, and cross-disciplinary thinking about the city of tomorrow. In short: a conversation starter that opens up new perspectives.
Participate-360
Participate-360: participation, data and visualisation in the living environment ReGreeny is developing a digital 3D platform that lets residents, designers and municipalities plan together for their street or neighbourhood. In many neighbourhoods, it's hard to make good decisions about things like greening, traffic and water storage, because these issues are complex and interconnected. With this platform, users can immediately see the effect of their choices, helping plans come together faster and better aligned. This helps prevent misunderstandings and delays, and builds greater support among residents.
