POWERED BY DESIGN & BUILD XR
Take your project beyond the floor plan.
Turn architectural plans or an existing 3D model into a fully walkable, interactive space you can explore on any device, experience in VR or AR, and share with anyone involved in the project.
Use the same model to review the design, align your team, support approvals, present a future property, and create on-demand AI renderings and video before the space is built.
One model. More ways to understand, share, and present your project.
A traditional rendering captures one finished view. An interactive 3D model gives you the freedom to move through the space, understand how rooms connect, review important details, and experience the project from multiple perspectives.
The model can continue supporting your project long after the first review. Use it for design decisions, remote collaboration, stakeholder presentations, sales conversations, and visual content creation.
Experience the project from every perspective.
Interactive Walkthrough
Virtual Reality
Tabletop and Dollhouse Views
On-Site AR
Guided Presentations
Shareable Access
Create visual content from the same model.
Your interactive model can become more than a design and decision-making tool. With our AI content capabilities, it can also serve as an ongoing source of photorealistic images and videos.
Generate visual content on demand for presentations, project updates, websites, social media, sales materials, and stakeholder communications, without rebuilding the model or starting a separate rendering process.
AI-included models can provide:
- Unlimited on-demand AI renderings
- Up to 20 AI-generated videos
- Photorealistic images created from the same model
- Content for sales, marketing, presentations, and approvals
- New visual assets as project or communication needs evolve
This gives you a faster, more flexible way to communicate the vision throughout the life of the project.
How it Works
How It Works
Start With the Files You Have
You do not need an existing 3D model to begin.
We can create an interactive environment from 2D architectural plans, including floor plans and elevations. When a 3D model already exists, we can prepare and optimize many common file types for the experience.
Define What the Model Needs to Accomplish
We begin by understanding how the model will be used, who needs to experience it, and what they need to see or do.
Your project scope will be based on:
- The quality and format of the source files
- The required level of detail
- The number of layouts, finishes, or options
- The features and viewing modes needed
- How and where the model will be shared
Experience or Share Your Space
Explore the project on a phone, tablet, computer, or VR headset. Share it with clients, stakeholders, project teams, or future buyers through interactive access, guided presentations, or an embedded website experience. Hosting management, training, and implementation support are also available based on your needs.
One model can support every stage of the project.
Home Design
Explore the layout, furniture, finishes, and overall experience of a future home before construction is complete.
Remote Collaboration
Give clients, family members, partners, and project teams a shared way to experience the space, even when they cannot visit the studio or job site.
Design Review and Approvals
Help owners, investors, boards, municipalities, and other stakeholders understand a proposed project more clearly.
Operations Planning
Evaluate how employees, customers, patients, equipment, or materials may move through a future space.
Sales and Pre-Selling
Help buyers, tenants, or investors experience a property before a model home or finished building is available.
Marketing and Content Creation
Generate renderings and videos from the same model for websites, presentations, social media, campaigns, and ongoing project communications.
Bring your unbuilt project to life, then put the model to work.
Create one interactive experience that helps people understand the space, make better decisions, share the vision, and produce content throughout the project.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an interactive 3D model?
An interactive 3D model allows you to move through and explore a future space from multiple viewpoints instead of looking at one static image.
Depending on the project, the model may include finishes, furniture, lighting, options, interactive tags, and other project details.
Do I need an existing 3D model?
No. We can create a digital model from 2D architectural plans.
We can also prepare and optimize many common 3D and BIM file types when a model has already been created.
How can I view the model?
Models may be viewed on supported phones, tablets, computers, and VR headsets.
Available viewing modes and device requirements will depend on the project and selected experience.
Can the model be shared with other people?
Yes. Shareable access allows clients, team members, stakeholders, or buyers to explore the model from different locations.
Can the model be embedded on a website?
Website embedding is available for certain project packages. This can be useful for developments, sales programs, leasing, public engagement, and buyer-facing experiences.
What are interactive tags?
Interactive tags are clickable points placed throughout the model.
They can provide information about finishes, fixtures, products, upgrades, amenities, views, room features, or other important details.
Can viewers compare different options?
Yes. Certain models can include selectable layouts, finishes, furniture packages, structural options, or other project variations.
The number and complexity of the options will affect the project scope.
Does the 3D model include AI features?
AI capabilities are available with certain model packages.
These features can allow users to create photorealistic images and video content from the interactive model for presentations, marketing, project updates, or sales materials.
AI is an added capability within the model, not a separate visualization service.
Is a 3D model the same as a rendering?
No. A rendering provides one finished view of a project.
An interactive model allows you to move through the space, change viewpoints, review relationships between rooms, share the experience, and continue using the model for different purposes.
Can we use both a walkthrough and a 3D model?
Yes. Many projects benefit from both.
A life-size walkthrough is valuable for evaluating scale, layout, and flow. A digital model can then support remote review, detailed visualization, stakeholder presentations, sales, or ongoing collaboration.
