Creative City, an application developed for iOS, tracks user movement throughout New York, suggests different inspiring sites or creative resources based on users' location data, and allows them to annotate the app's map based on their own observations and experiences living and working as a creative professional in New York City.

My inspiration for the project came from thinking about exactly what factors are required to be creative. I was also inspired by considering my own reason for choosing to study and ultimately live in New York:  I love the huge amount of creative resources available to us here. Thus, I aimed to materialize this idea in a functional tool/mobile app.

With the ability to add "points of inspiration" to a customizable map and log my experiences in different locations, I intended for this application to be an easy way to track my activities within the city while being able to store and share locations that I find most useful in my creative process.
