Icosa Gallery
Community-led 3D creation and sharing tools
Icosa maintains three projects that build upon the legacy of Google's Tilt Brush, Blocks and Poly. We are developing open-source, community-led 3D creation and sharing tools. Open Brush, which allows users to paint in 3D space, creating immersive artworks. Open Blocks provides intuitive tools for low poly 3D modeling, enabling the construction of virtual objects and environments. Icosa Gallery serves as a 3D model hosting platform, providing a central location for sharing, viewing, and distributing 3D assets. We aim to enhance the interoperability and content processing pipeline with improved format conversion, and streamlined workflows. The reusability of the Icosa Gallery will be improved making it more useful for integrating into existing websites, editor tools for the Gallery Viewer will be created, and integrations with Blender and Godot will be enhanced. These improvements will solidify the foundation of this open-source 3D ecosystem, facilitating wider creation and distribution of 3D content.
