A feat like this has never been attempted before, making 50 Amazing Homes, India’s first interactive architectural book”

Taking a step further, the company partnered with India’s leading augmented reality and visual discovery platform, Blippar to create ‘50 Amazing Homes in India’.

It was a great experience associating with Skyboard’s mission and creating India’s first Interactive architectural book. It gives a unique opportunity to interact with the celebrated architects across geography on a single platform, making it a collector’s item. For readers interested in building beautiful homes, the interactivity gives a first hand unforgettable experience of home décor.
