Familiar Tides: AR Goldfish Street
Familiar Tides redefines Hong Kong’s Goldfish Street by addressing its “High Traffic, Low Wealth” paradox. While the project is titled AR Goldfish Street, it utilizes a “Dual Realm” strategy to ensure accessibility. This gamified 2D web prototype transforms passive tourism into a cinematic interactive narrative. Users can engage through the AR Lens for on-site immersion or the Mind’s Eye mode for a camera-free, digital experience. By participating in “digital rituals” designed in Figma, Gen Z users convert visual curiosity into tangible support for local heritage, reframing digital spectacle as a sustainable cultural resource.
