Abstract
Architecture is the art of transforming imagination into reality. This starts from drawing engineering plans to 3D drawings to executing the building and turning it into reality. With the advent of modern technology, it has become easy to bridge the gap between fantasy and reality (idea and building). Since the architect's profession is the art of persuading clients. So, the emergence of virtual reality technology will create confidence for the architect. And a great transfer in the way engineers work. Where virtual reality has become a new and powerful way of expression. It allows us to explore cities before they are built. And provide virtual models that appear close to real reality and evaluate building design processes before implementing them.Which leads to providing a realistic environment and an accurate vision of future cities. Virtual reality technology helps avoid any wrong decisions before the implementation of cities begins. Thus, the result will be greater control in the future and a better visualization of future cities, especially smart cities that depend on information and communication technology to increase the quality of life. The research paper aims at how to apply virtual reality technology as part of the methodology for designing future cities, especially smart cities. And measuring the ability of virtual reality to reduce the sensory perception gap.between the design idea and the reality after implementation. And raising the design and creative skills of the new cities.
