The 3rd Virtual Design World Cup
Virtual Design World Cup "3rd The Student VR & BIM Competition
on Cloud"
-Competition for designing an advanced construction engineering-works on
Cloud, making full use of BIM/CIM and VR ! -
Theme 2013
Sustainable Station Front in Global Metropolis
This is an international design competition for students to compete amongst
each other in designing an innovative architecture, bridge and city design
using BIM/CIM &VR technologies.
Every year students compete for the top prize which is given to an outstanding
work outlining a predefined theme in the aspect of design, innovative idea,
and creativity. They plan and design their work based on the theme and
then run a simulation. Their final model will be presented to the judges
in a form of a script for evaluation.
To assist students with the production of their work, we plan to carry
out workshops and seminars. We will also support the students who will
make use of software from now on. Also you can communicate and collect
a lot of information without having to visit the local area by participating
various workshop reviews through the Web and VR forum ( 3D cloud BBS ).
The script of VR data created by FORUM8's software and a "Concept
poster" (A1 size (lateral) in PDF format) are required for the final
submission and the judgment is performed on the basis of "VR Cloud
judgment". We would like you to use FORUM8's BIM software and VR technologies
by all means and consider this competition as an opportunity to create
your masterpiece. We encourage students from different departments majoring
in different field of studies to make a team to work on their model together
to demonstrate that BIM/CIM can be used in various discipline.

| Guideline for applicants |
Theme 2013 : Sustainable Station Front in Global Metropolis
The concept of installing a new train station as part of the redevelopment
project, whose plan is to reorganize the 20 hectare rail yard situated
between Shinagawa station and Tamachi station and to relocate the Yamanote
line from the west side of the yard to the east side (adjacent to the Shinkansen
line), has been announced on air and put into consideration. No wonder
the excitement for a new station whose name has not been given yet. The
2013 VDWC challenges students to devise a proposal of a new environmentally
friendly urban space, which will most likely become one of Tokyo's significant
"stopping off points" for people transferring from one transport
mode to another, radiating from a new train station in Tokyo's harbor district.
The VR data of the competition site includes the Shinagawa Intercity where
FORUM8's head office will be relocated this July, and the Shinagawa station
front.
| VR data for the Competition Site |

be redeveloped after relocating the Yamanote line and Keihin-Tohoku line,
