Lighting
Light scenes at a switch
Set a whole room with one switch, or work each lamp on its own. The light and shadows update instantly.
The idea
Explore it first
A real-time, explorable model of a home, a building or a whole neighbourhood. Buyers and clients walk it freely on a screen: open the doors, switch the lights, change the finishes, step outside and down the street. It goes further than a virtual tour, and it can stand in for a show home before a single one is built.
Why it is different
Beyond tours and show homes
- 01
Virtual tour
360° photos from fixed points. Only possible once the space exists, and you cannot change anything or walk where the camera did not stand.
- 02
Show home
One unit, in one place, with one set of finishes. Costly to build, furnish and staff, and only seen by people who can visit.
- 03
Interactive architecture
Walk anywhere, before anything is built. Change finishes, layouts and light, visit any lot, and share it online with every buyer.

Visibility
Furnished or empty
Hide the furniture to walk the bare rooms, then bring it back. Shadows and light adjust as you go.
Reflections
Ray-traced reflections
Mirrors, glass and polished surfaces reflect the room live as you move through it.
Try them yourself
Two ways to walk in
Fully custom
Artisan House
What going custom is like: a whole family home, with its own interactions built for it.

Artisan House
Artisan House: changing it as you go
Doors, lights and cabinets that respond while you walk through.Why it costs less
We built our own tools for the repetitive parts: doors, stairs, materials, lighting, cameras. The hours go into your project instead, which is what makes a full interactive model affordable, and a whole neighbourhood possible.
