Building facades significantly affect how eco-friendly a building is, making them a prime example of how environmental considerations may be employed as a design driver for digital design research. Augmented Reality (AR) is intended to display digital elements over real-world views with limited interactivity, typically via smartphones. However, previous literature showed lacking discussion on the Augmented Reality application in learning the element of façade design. This paper presents an application of a (ARchi3D) 3D augmented reality (AR) design to learn the façade building elements at a colonial shop lot building in Malaysia. The aim of this research is to develop a new learning platform for students to explore and learn about the facade design at colonial buildings. This effort is to support SDG4: Quality Education and SDG11: Sustainable cities and communities. This development methodology-based application divides the ADDIE model of instructional development into five phases: Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. As a result, the application provides a unique way to study colonial structures in a brand-new setting of 3D augmented reality (AR) by serving as a reference and information source for the elements of colonial facade shophouses. This study showed how applications help increase people's awareness while still protecting the historical significance of Malaysian colonial structures. © 2023 IEEE.
