Problem
Architects and architecture enthusiasts often struggle to efficiently discover, organize, and reference architectural projects alongside their related publications. Existing methods for building architectural libraries can be fragmented and time-consuming.
Solution
Arkitok is a digital platform designed to streamline the process of finding, saving, and connecting architectural projects with their corresponding printed publications. Users can search for projects by architect, location, or typology, and access detailed information, high-quality images, and project locations on a map. Registered users can create custom "Arkilists" to organize their favorite projects, similar to music playlists, and link them to relevant architectural magazine publications. The platform aims to bridge the gap between digital discovery and traditional architectural media, providing a comprehensive resource for inspiration and reference.

Arkitok primarily targets architects, architecture students, and architectural fans seeking a centralized platform to discover, organize, and reference architectural projects and related publications.
