After all initial design decisions were made, the most tedious part of adding new tours to the app was drawing new maps. It took almost two weeks to manually make the first design prototype using Open Street Map screenshots as a reference. After that, we developed a Houdini based pipeline to get the same stylized maps directly out of raw XML data in minutes. When designing interactive experiences it's quite important to think about animations and transitions, as they are essential for guiding the user through different screens. If done well, it can provide a sense of place and location.
