In this paper, we will answer the following question: How is CSCW utilized in Thirdroom and how can it be improved based on theoretical analysis? To answer thisquestion, we researched what Thirdroom is and what it is used for. We looked attheory regarding classifications of CSCW-systems and collaborations, and used theempirical data from these to analyse Thirdroom based on our case groups. We foundthat Thirdroom lacked characteristics of coordination and synchronicity. To mitigatethis, a set of new features were proposed. These features were the conclusion of theanalysis and the basis of architectural models, showing the problems within the as-isarchitecture of Thirdroom from a functional standpoint. The features were modelledin a proposed architecture of Thirdroom from a contextual, informational and functional viewpoint
