Memory House

Artist and filmmaker Wilfred Lee asked what it would feel like to walk through a house built from memory. Using Marble to generate rooms from still imagery, then stitching them with spatial audio, he created Memory House — a narrative space that starts as one 2D image and grows into dozens of explorable rooms.

The experience

Still domestic scenes become portals: each image is reconstructed as a walkable room, then linked into corridors and surreal observatories. The result feels remembered rather than rendered — part dream, part architecture.

Pipeline

• Image to world: Marble Gaussian splat reconstruction from curated 2D prompts
• Composer: Rooms stitched and aligned in Marble Studio
• Spark: Real-time traversal in the built world
• Cinematic beats: Veo3 transitions and ElevenLabs voice cues tied to proximity
