urban nation

urban nation is berlin's first and only museum dedicated to street art, graffiti, and urban contemporary art. it opened in 2017 in berlin-schöneberg and has since become one of the city's most distinctive cultural institutions. admission is free, reflecting the democratic spirit of the art form itself.

redesigned by architects graft, the museum spans 350 m² of exhibition space across two floors, with diagonal bridges, soaring room heights, and a modular facade that serves as a permanent canvas for international artists. its programme is international in reach and local in spirit, with large-scale works by artists like banksy, shepard fairey, and lady pink.

oda captured both floors of the museum in a single visit, reconstructing the interior galleries and the artworks within them as a navigable digital record of the current exhibition. visitors from anywhere in the world can move freely through the space, study individual works at close range, and follow the curation as it was hung.

oda's ai guide answers questions about the artists, the works, the building, and the surrounding schöneberg neighbourhood, in any language, around the clock. because street art exhibitions at urban nation typically run for around a year, each capture is preserved as a permanent record — a living digital archive that future audiences can return to long after the works themselves have changed.
