Apollo XR is a multidisciplinary creative studio that sits at the intersection of architecture, storytelling, and emerging technologies. We create meaningful, sensory-rich, and research-driven extended reality experiences.
We’re Multidisciplinary by Design
Our strength comes from our diverse range of capabilities. Apollo unites a team of architects, engineers, designers, technology consultants, artists, and historians, merging physical and digital fields to create experiences that are both meaningful and immersive.



We Work Across Borders
Apollo was founded in İstanbul, with additional bases in Lisbon and London. This international presence allows us to operate at the intersection of cultures, industries, and ideas. We bring together a trusted network of local and distributed collaborators: architects, designers, engineers, technology consultants, artists, and historians to reimagine how people experience the world, physically and virtually. It keeps us agile, globally connected, allowing us to scale effectively across different locations.

Why us
Founded by Women
