App takes users on tour of Abbey Road

It has the most famous zebra crossing in the world outside it, and has hosted every major name in music in the last 80 years, but Abbey Road Studios has never before been open to the public.

Despite receiving around 500,000 visitors a year, the studio doors have been shut to those not recording ever since 1931 — that is, until now, and a new collaboration with Google.

The result is Inside Abbey Road, a new web app that takes users on an interactive, immersive and detailed virtual tour of the inner workings of Abbey Road.
