Tour of Campus Landmarks
The University of Queensland St. Lucia Campus in Brisbane, Australia has unique and symbolic carvings etched throughout their campus’ buildings. While the Saint Lucia Campus already has an app tour of their campus, UQ Walking Tours, they wanted to show the beauty and importance of these carvings in a walking tour app to share with their community and the world. The UQ Carvings App was created using the App Builder Website and depicts more than 1,000 carvings located throughout the scenic campus.
The App
The UQ Carvings App for iOS and Android gives users an inttimate look into the beautiful carvings featured throughout The Great Court area of the University. The Great Court was designed to be a modern take on the European quadrangles of monasteries and universities. This video describes the significance of the Great Court Carvings:

Now visitors can not only see each carving in the UQ Carvings App, but they can locate them on campus and better understand the significance of each carving.
