For Open House Chicago 2023, we helped Chicago Architecture Center create an app to make the Open House experience of discovering the amazing architecture of the city so much easier! Along with being able to easily access a city map with every site, users can create and share their own itineraries, follow pre-programmed tours, and discover sites by their neighborhoods.

When Pixite came to us about a new website, they had a few specific goals: showcase their apps in a fun way, show off the work that incredibly talented members of their community created, and make their tutorials and other content easier to find and engage with.
