# AR for Architecture & Interior Design

Spatial visualization applications for architectural models, room layouts and finish options, helping people inspect a design in its physical context.

**Furniture layout** Wall layer

Scale & clearance

Alignment anchor

Layer visibility Site reference

## Tools & technologies

-   3D model conversion
-   ARKit or ARCore
-   Unity
-   Asset storage

## Review a design where it will be built.

### Room layouts

Compare furniture arrangements against a room's visible geometry.

### Architectural models

Explore a model at tabletop scale or at an agreed on-site reference.

### Design reviews

Capture an option, viewpoint and annotation for discussion with the design team.

## Compare two interior layouts

Capability Example

A designer supplies two furniture arrangements for the same room.

### Prepare

### Align

### Compare

Illustrative data. Nothing is sent to an external system.

Example workspace 1 / 3

### Architectural input

Illustrative spatial reference with a selected object

-   Layout options: A and B
-   Units normalized to metres
-   Furniture meshes simplified

Normalize units and simplify models for the target device.

### On-site alignment

Illustrative spatial reference with a selected object

-   Both options share one reference
-   Model scale checked
-   Viewpoint saved

Place both options against the same user-confirmed reference.

### Design comparison

Illustrative spatial reference with a selected object

-   Layout A switched to B
-   Clearance visible in context
-   Review note attached to viewpoint

Switch layouts and attach notes to a saved viewpoint.

A design-review record showing the chosen option and unresolved comments.

Follow the record through the next step

## Architectural assets prepared for on-site review.

-   **Model conversion pipeline**
-   **Placement and comparison interface**

-   **Material variant controls**
-   **Device validation and review export**

## Resolve units, alignment and asset detail.

### Model fidelity

Agree which geometry and materials must survive conversion from the design tools.

### Alignment limits

Consumer AR is a visualization aid; survey-grade positioning requires separate validation.

## Questions before we start.

### Can you use CAD or BIM files?

We assess export formats, geometry, units and usage rights before defining a conversion pipeline.

### Can reviewers share an exact alignment?

Shared spatial alignment depends on device and environment support. A saved screenshot or model viewpoint can provide a simpler review record.

## Bring your starting point.

Share a sample design model, its units and the review decision the visualization should support.
