In this guide, you'll learn how retailers are using 3D planners to:

• Enhance free design services: Create accurate 2D and 3D floor plans that help shoppers imagine furniture in their own space.
• Increase transaction size: Upsell full-room solutions through personalised digital merchandising and product grouping.
• Improve shopper confidence: 68% of furniture buyers prefer stores offering 3D visualisation services like room planners.
• Streamline design workflows: Use accurate real-time geometry, lighting, and layout updates that support both customers and professional designers.
• Centralise 3D content: Reduce vendor sprawl by managing visual assets across room planners, configurators, WebAR, and renders in one ecosystem.

As furniture shoppers increasingly begin their journeys online, clear, immersive product visualisation has become essential. This buyer’s guide explains how retailers and manufacturers can use 3D configurators to improve accuracy, reduce returns, and deliver a more confident buying experience across channels.

Inside the guide, you'll learn:

• Which configurator type fits your needs: 3D product vs. 3D modular tools for complex, configurable catalogues.
• No-code and ease-of-use features: empower large teams to update products and configurations without relying on developers.
• Enterprise-grade efficiency: reuse 3D assets across configurators, AR, room planners, and renders to reduce duplicated work and vendor sprawl.
• Integration essentials: PIM, DAM, ERP, and SIF support for accurate pricing, attributes, and order files across markets and channels.
• Environmental impact and ROI: how digital visualisation reduces physical samples, improves accuracy, and supports sustainable operations.
