Abstract :
A work in progress, the "Labyrinthe de Versailles" mobile app attempts to re-imagine the titular garden in its original 17th century state among the gardens of the Château de Versailles. The app experience, designed to be initially used on Apple iOS mobile devices (iPad, iPhone), is in 3D and geo-localized to help explore the enigmas of the garden that once lived there but was replaced by the "Bosquet de la Reine" in the late 18th Century.
