The Living Archive - Centrinno EU

Part of the CENTRINNO EU Project, The Living Archive collects stories from (post-)industrial sites to create inclusive, circular hubs in our cities (Fab City Foundation).

The challenge at A++ was to create a web application that would not only showcase a huge and quickly growing amount of content, but also display the connections between stories, locations, people and time.

A unique opportunity for us to experiment with design, web architecture and data visualisation techniques. The application is built on React and uses D3.js for the network graphs – check it out at:

Special credits go to Jonathan Even-Zohar, Hester Dibbits and harry reddick at Reinwardt Academie for their detailed and relentless work of gathering, analysing, editing and documenting stories.
