BR-MERU — Built to Rise, in Real-Time 3D

A supertall tower is dug, piled, cored, floored, glazed and topped out, then lit against a night skyline — all rendered live.

A construction firm's story, rendered live in WebGL. Behind "Built" and "to rise." a ghost wireframe of the finished tower stands over an empty site; the ground is dug out, piles drive in and a raft is poured, then the core climbs on jumping forms with a tower crane riding it while floor plates stack one by one, each turning a degree, and floor and day counters run. Glass panels hang from the bottom up as a counter runs to 3,400, the crane tops out under a giant "Topped out.", the sky turns from day through dusk to night, the windows light up and the camera pulls back to the tower anchoring a lit city. Then the page: a manifesto with self-drawing engineering drawings, four projects where tapping one builds it floor by floor, a live tower configurator with floors, form, facade, a day-night switch and feasibility numbers, a pinned four-day floor cycle drawn in section, a ticking safety record and client testimonials. There is no image, video or model file in the product. Next.js 16, React 19, React Three Fiber, GSAP ScrollTrigger and Lenis.

How to run this

Works the same on Windows, macOS and Linux. No prior setup beyond Node.js, and nothing to configure — the pack runs as-is.

Built with
Next.js 16
Requires
Node.js 20 or newer
Opens at
http://localhost:3000

✦ Or let an AI agent set it up for you

Already using Claude Code, Antigravity, Cursor or Windsurf? Unzip the pack, open the folder as a project, and just ask:

Install the dependencies and run this project, then give me the URL

It reads the README included in the pack, runs the right commands for this project, and sorts out anything that trips along the way. You still need Node.js installed (step 1 below) — everything after that it can handle.

Or run it yourself

  1. 1

    Install Node.js, if you don't have it

    Download the LTS build from nodejs.org and run the installer — on Windows and Mac it handles everything. Mac users with Homebrew can run brew install node instead.

    To check it worked, run node --version. It should print a number like v22.11.0.

  2. 2

    Unzip the pack, then open a terminal inside the folder

    Windows: open the unzipped folder in File Explorer, click the address bar, type powershell and press Enter.

    Mac: press Cmd+Space, type terminal, press Enter. Then type cd (with a trailing space) and drag the unzipped folder onto the terminal window — it fills in the path for you. Press Enter.

  3. 3

    Install the dependencies

    Run npm install

    One-time, and takes roughly 30–60 seconds. It creates a node_modules folder — that's expected, and it's why the zip doesn't ship one.

  4. 4

    Start it

    Run npm run dev

    Then open http://localhost:3000 in your browser. Leave the terminal open while you use it — closing it stops the site. Press Ctrl+C in the terminal to stop.

  5. 5

    Optional — build for production

    When you're ready to deploy, npm run build produces the optimised output. The pack deploys to Vercel, Netlify or any Node host with no changes.

+ If something goes wrong
“npm is not recognised” / “command not found: npm”
Node.js isn’t installed, or the terminal was open before you installed it. Close the terminal, open a new one, and try again.
“Port 3000 is already in use”
Something else is running there — often a previous copy of this site. Close the other terminal, or stop it with Ctrl+C.
The page loads but images or video are missing
Make sure you ran the command from inside the unzipped BR-MERU — Built to Rise, in Real-Time 3D folder itself, not the folder containing it.
npm install shows warnings
Warnings (as opposed to errors) are normal and safe to ignore. Only a message starting with ERR! needs attention.
