Intellify’s AR & VR Kitchen Design Solutions

KisTAG, a renowned interior design company in Switzerland, sought to innovate their customer engagement approach during the pandemic. Their objective was to offer an advanced, virtual experience for users to explore and customize kitchen designs without needing to visit physical showrooms. KisTAG envisioned leveraging Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) technologies to facilitate this process, making it easier for customers to experiment with different design options and visualize their kitchen interiors from home.

To meet KisTAG’s vision, Intellify developed a comprehensive AR and VR solution tailored specifically for kitchen interior design. The platform featured two main components: an AR mobile application and a VR headset experience. The AR mobile app enabled users to virtually place and adjust kitchen furniture and appliances within their own space using their smartphones. Users could experiment with various colors, materials, and layouts in real-time, seeing how different design elements would look in their actual kitchen environments.

In addition, the VR experience provided users with an immersive kitchen environment through VR headsets. This component allowed users to explore a fully rendered virtual kitchen, interact with design elements such as opening cabinets, and experience different design configurations from a first-person perspective. This VR environment offered a realistic and engaging way for users to preview potential kitchen designs.

Intellify played several crucial roles in the development of this project. The team was responsible for the creation of the VR application, which provided a detailed and interactive virtual kitchen experience for users. They also developed the AR mobile application, which allowed users to visualize and customize kitchen designs directly on their smartphones. The project involved extensive 3D modeling and animation to produce lifelike kitchen elements for both the AR and VR platforms. A significant aspect of their role was also focused on UI/UX design to ensure the applications were user-friendly and intuitive. Additionally, the team conducted thorough testing and debugging to ensure the solutions were free of issues and delivered a seamless user experience. The final stage involved the successful deployment of both applications to make them available to KisTAG’s customers.

The primary challenge in this project was creating an immersive and engaging interior design experience without physical interactions. The goal was to develop a high-quality, reliable virtual experience that could replace the need for in-person showroom visits. This challenge was addressed by focusing on delivering a polished and bug-free experience through meticulous development and testing processes, ensuring that both the AR and VR solutions met KisTAG’s high standards for performance and user satisfaction.

Intellify’s AR and VR solutions successfully transformed the kitchen design process for KisTAG, providing customers with innovative tools to explore, customize, and visualize kitchen interiors from the safety and comfort of their own homes. The project was a notable success in the interior design industry, demonstrating how AR and VR technologies can be effectively utilized to enhance customer experiences and support design decision-making in a virtual setting.
