VR Immersion Technology is Revolutionising Home Design
The home design and construction sector is about to undergo a revolutionary shift because of a ground-breaking partnership between renowned proptech startup Enviz and Sydney-based design and construction business Hall & Hart. By providing customers with an immersive virtual reality (VR) encounter that greatly improves visualisation and decision-making processes, our cooperation offers a novel approach to house design.
Residential design has traditionally depended on 2D blueprints and 3D drawings, which sometimes fall short of providing customers with a realistic impression of their future dwellings. Hall & Hart has included Enviz’s virtual reality technology into its offerings in recognition of this constraint. From the first drawings to the finished model, this innovation offers clients a completely immersive and participatory design experience, greatly enhancing the speed and precision of the design process.
A lot of customers find it difficult to see their houses in 2D or even 3D designs. The objective, according to Craig Sutton, general manager of Hall & Hart, is to assist homeowners in vividly visualising their future houses as early as possible. This lowers the possibility of disappointment, discontent, and the need for pricey changes later on in the procedure.
The Enviz platform helps property professionals overcome these obstacles by providing them with the resources they need to more effectively visualise, experience, and present unbuilt homes. Enviz offers a new degree of realism and detail by letting homeowners walk through their house designs in a completely immersive virtual reality setting. This helps customers explore their homes in real time, make wise choices, and steer clear of costly adjustments later on in the construction process.
Customers can walk through their creations at their own leisure, share their experiences with relatives and close friends, get comments, and improve their ideas thanks to the degree of detail that VR technology offers. Sutton claims that VR has developed into a vital tool for addressing design flaws and making sure that issues are found and fixed before the project goes too far.
With the help of a thorough tour guide, Hall & Hart encourages customers to examine all aspects of the property, including the locations of gas metres, water reservoirs and window sizes. According to Sutton, one of his clients even sat in his tub in the virtual reality environment to evaluate the view outside the window before opting to adjust the window to have a better view. Enviz VR technology is the only way to achieve this degree of personalisation and attention to specifics.
The influence of virtual reality technology was seen in a recent project on Sydney’s Northern Beaches when a customer chose to eliminate an additional living room that was intruding on the open-plan part after seeing the VR model. The VR experience enabled this early choice, which saved money on expensive changes later in the project. Without virtual reality, it may have taken up to five months to find this alteration, which would have had serious time and financial repercussions for the customer and the builders.
Property developers, sales representatives, and purchasers may interact in actual time, on-site or off-site, in person or virtually, thanks to Enviz’s completely mobile system. The system’s versatility is further increased by its interoperability with web browsers, handheld gadgets, and VR headsets, which allow users to access it whenever and wherever they want.
Using AR and VR technology into house design is becoming more and more necessary as the desire for customised, high-quality designs rises. The collaboration between Enviz and Hall & Hart serves as an example of how cutting-edge technologies can dramatically improve the client experience and the creative process. Enviz CEO Michael Shaw is thrilled to be driving this industry change and establishing a new benchmark for home architecture and construction.
Craig Sutton is also excited, pointing out that the industry as a whole may profit from the significant advancements that VR technology brings about. The understanding and usage of VR technology in home development are anticipated to become common requirements for achieving consumer expectations as customers want more personalisation and a superior experience.
