Harmony Case Studies

Harmony — Development that Respects Heritage

Examples of projects that blend modern utility with cultural protection.

Digital Museums

3D scans, virtual tours for global access.

Institutions digitize collections to reduce handling and open archives to education worldwide.

Heritage-friendly Transit

Transit plans that protect monuments & lanes.

Urban layouts that keep conservation zones intact while improving mobility and local economies.

Community Tourism

Local economy + tradition preservation.

Harmony Playbook — Steps that Work

A field-tested flow that projects use to balance growth with culture.

1) Document

Scan, map and interview—start with knowledge.

Read more
Use 3D scans for fragile artifacts, collect oral histories, and geo-tag assets so planners have the same baseline.
2) Co-Design

Workshops with residents, artisans & students.

Read more
Prototype streetscapes, signage and exhibits with end users. Co-design reduces conflict and unlocks local craft.
3) Lightweight Build

Reversible interventions, minimum new footprint.

Read more
Use modular decks, tension structures and removable fixtures—preserve original fabric while adding utility.
4) Share & Sustain

Open data, training, and micro-economies.

Read more
Publish datasets, fund apprenticeships, and support guild-led tourism so benefits remain with the community.
