Second Life architecture

You can can the world's next Zaha Hadid or Frank Gehry, designing gravity-defying buildings and shaping entire cities in Second Life.

Second Life is an online virtual community. Much more than a computer game, it lets you create an identity, launch a career, build a home, and interact with other "citizens."

Professional architects, artists, and designers are using Second Life to try out new designs and display their work. A new loft-style Starwood Hotel, constructed in Second Life, is set to open in 2008. Designers will use the feedback they receive on their virtual hotel as they construct a real world version.
